The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important condition to deal with in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank will often result in idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both cases very expediently.

Bear in mind that whenever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and useless.

I appreciated a perfect afternoon hiking on the weekend and felt delighted with myself the next morning as I set out to help a new family who were vacationing in Bowbeck. They stopped after inserting the wrong fuel in their dark blue Fiat Uno, and they were approximately half an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and laughed as I listened to the lady telling her man off for actually being so stupid. "Precisely how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this problem goes on all the time in Suffolk and that it is nothing at all to fret about, even so he all the same got his ear bent by his better half. Poor chap. In any case, I drained all of the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some correct fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed farewell and thought about what her indoors would say to me in the event that I did the same thing... I would never hear the end of it!

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.
