The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to deal with in an automobile - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can easily trigger idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both situations pretty swiftly.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've successfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.


Wrong Fuel in Car in BA1 Postcode - Upper Swainswick Misfueling

Just had a good night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a rainy Wednesday and I was on the way to assist an old woman after she had put petrol in her diesel shiny Fiat Doblo in Upper Swainswick. I'd been informed she drove away from the petrol station and was stranded in a country road on the way to see her grandchildren. I punched her location into the TomTom and was on-scene in less than 60 minutes. I turned up at the location and extracted the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing the drain she explained, "I'm becoming quite forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car using diesel as I'd only just got it a few days back after my former one, which I had owned for more than thirty years, inevitably stopped working". I finished the job and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a lovely Somerset lady!

A guy had conked out just near a street in Upper Swainswick. His burgundy red Cadillac STS-V engine had stopped functioning and he had no idea what was wrong until eventually he noticed he had put unleaded in his diesel car. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and that is when he told us: "I cannot believe that I didn't detect that I put the wrong fuel in my car."

We reassured her that the car would be fine and that she would be back ready to go soon.

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.
