The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel is going to cause idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases fairly expediently.

Take note that any time the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will be completely water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car South Stoke

Now I am not necessarily overly keen on doing the job on weekends, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I had just come away from the wife and kids after having a tasty roast made for me by the better half, and I was on my way to deal with a fellow because he filled the incorrect petrol in his expensive Land Rover. He was somewhere in South Stoke so I was on scene before long. Just as I drove up behind the vehicle and got busy draining he explained to me "Thank the Lord! I stupidly had my thoughts on other things and didn't realise I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Have I brought about any harm by simply driving it?" I stated that truth be told there should not be any kind of damage and also I would remove the wrong fuel as soon as possible. As expected I got the wrong fuel drained from the vehicle and filled up with some appropriate fuel, and thus yet another delighted client could continue on their traveling with no difficulty. The guy could not stop thanking me, and this is actually what helps make working on Sundays in West Sussex just a small 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 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.
