The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important matter to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances very quickly.

Remember however that if the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a car parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Street Ashton

Now I am not ever so enthusiastic about working Sundays, and the other day was the same. I'd just departed the family filled with a tasty Sunday roast prepared for me by the better half, and I was on my way to deal with a man after he had put the wrong fuel in his yellow Kia Sorento. He was stationed in Street Ashton hence I arrived there before long. Just as I pulled up right behind the vehicle and got out he told me "Thank the Lord! I incredibly had my thoughts on other stuff and didn't grasp that I'd put diesel in my petrol car. Have I inflicted some harm simply by driving it?" I said that there should not be harm and that also I'd personally get the contaminated fuel drained right away. As expected I drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and filled it with the suitable fuel, and yet another satisfied customer could continue on his traveling without the fuss. The man did not stop saying thanks to me, and that helps make carrying out work on weekends in Warwickshire that tiny bit less painful to me!

This really was what we call the graveyard shift. It was about 3 in the morning and nobody was around. It had been quite quiet thus far, and John and I were loafing about looking through several old magazines. That was an uncommon tranquil moment in Warwickshire. Actually it was indeed that quiet that the moment the telephone ultimately rang it made me start! The motorist explained: "I have only just concluded my night shift and stupidly poured petrol in a compact Mazda929 in error". We told him to let us know where exactly he was located and we headed out, ending up in Street Ashton only half an hour later. The wrong fuel was taken out from the car. He thanked us for getting there so rapidly. As we were coming back home we saw two girls at the side of the highway who appeared to have a flat tyre. So we pulled over to change it, much to their elation.

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.
