The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious matter to deal with in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will contribute to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases rather easily.

Keep in mind that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to an automobile parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Tadwick

Now I'm certainly not that enthusiastic about working Sundays, and a week ago was the same. I'd just departed home following a lovely roast prepared for me by the wife, and I was off to assist a fellow because he filled the incorrect fuel in his light blue BMW X5 M. He was situated in Tadwick and so I was on scene very quickly. Just as I arrived at the car and stepped out he explained to me "Thank the Lord! I incredibly had my concentration on other considerations and didn't realise I've put diesel in my petrol car. Have I caused damage through driving it?" I said generally there shouldn't be any kind of damage and that also I'd personally get the wrong fuel drained at once. Naturally I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and filled it with the appropriate fuel, and yet another happy customer had the ability to carry on with their ride without the need for fuss. He could hardly stop thanking me, and that is actually what tends to make working on weekends in Somerset just a tiny bit better for me!

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.
