The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious condition to deal with in an automobile - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel is going to lead to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both cases quite quickly.

Take note that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will be totally wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.


Wrong Fuel in Car in NE43 Postcode - Branch End Misfueling

What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a warm Wednesday and we were on my way to assist an elder lovely lady who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel elegant Seat Altea in Branch End. I had been advised she had left the filling station forecourt and broken down in a backwater lane en route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I punched the location straight into the Satnav and was on-scene within an hour or so. I got to the car and drained the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. While I was doing it she explained, "I am getting somewhat absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the car using diesel seeing that I had only got it a few days ago after my former car, which I had used for about 30 years, eventually gave up the ghost". I completed the job and she offered me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. What a pleasant Northumberland woman!

I had a perfect day fishing on the weekend and was feeling pleased the next day as I set out to aid a young family who were vacationing in Branch End. They'd stopped after inserting diesel in their matte black MINI Cooper Clubman, and the car was approximately an hour away. I got there at their position and smirked to myself while I listened to the girl telling her partner off for being so silly. "Precisely how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this occurs frequently in Northumberland and that it's truly absolutely nothing to worry about, even so he yet still got his ear bent by his wife. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted hasta la vista and considered what my wife would ask me in the event that I made the very same error... I'd personally never hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car Northumberland - Petrol in Diesel Car Branch End

We recently had a phone call about a businessman who had put the incorrect fuel in his spotless Renault Traffic in Branch End. He had conked out on the street. "After putting petrol in my diesel car I didn't recognise the issue till we stopped working. You removed the wrong fuel from my car and got it running . I was amazed with both how quick you were and your value for money". It goes without saying that we were on-scene punctually and flushed the engine after draining all the wrong fuel from the diesel tank.

A woman working in Branch End phoned us shortly after she had managed to get her wrong fueled car to the office. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel grass green Hyundai Accent and, like plenty before her, imagined that she could basically fill up her tank with diesel and it'd be fine. The vehicle was spluttering and then it cut out when she reached the entrance of her work. We quickly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and had it fixed within an hour or so whilst she was in the office. She came out later on and thanked us saying, "I'm very relieved you sorted my car."

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

  1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
    • Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
    • A lot of smoke (more than usual)
    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
  2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VA receipt.
  3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
  4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
