The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to handle in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the fuel will bring about idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases pretty swiftly.

Be aware that as long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will likely be totally wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

Wrong Fuel in Car Suffolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Acton Place

I am not that keen on carrying out work on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I'd only just left home following a tasty lunch made by the missus, and I was on the way to deal with a guy after he had put the incorrect fuel in his maroon VW. He was situated in Acton Place hence I was on scene almost immediately. Just as I pulled up at the rear of the vehicle and stepped out he explained to me "Thank God! I had my mind on other stuff and failed to perceive I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I created any kind of problems by starting it?" I stated truth be told there shouldn't be any problems and that I'd remove the wrong fuel immediately for him. Needless to say I removed the contaminated fuel from the car and put in the appropriate fuel, and another content customer had the ability to carry on with his journey without any fuss. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and that is exactly what tends to make working on weekends in Suffolk just that little bit better in my opinion!

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.
