The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have successfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can certainly produce idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both circumstances quite easily.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

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 VAT 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.
