Wrong Fuel in Car Peas Acre - Petrol in Diesel Car Peas Acre

Now I am not ever too interested in carrying out work on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I'd only just left the wife and kids after a fantastic roast made for me by the better half, and I was on the way to sort out a man who put the wrong petrol in his Peas Acre. He was stationed nearby thus I arrived with him rapidly. As I pulled up at the rear of the vehicle and started work he said to me "Thank the Lord! I had my thoughts on something else and failed to grasp that I had put diesel in my petrol car. Have I inflicted damage by driving it?" I determined that there shouldn't be problems and also I would get the fuel drained quickly for him. As expected I drained the fuel from the vehicle and filled it with some appropriate fuel, and yet another satisfied client had the ability to continue on his journey without any subsequent bother. He did not stop thanking me, and that makes working on weekends a little easier for me personally!

We have many similar cases of suspicions experienced by our clients, only for our technicians to find out a completely different problem upon arrival. For you to make sure your vehicle is experiencing problems as a result of incorrect fuel, we have put together some of the usual signs for you.

The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!



All that said, you will most likely be more cautious in future, now that you have experienced putting the incorrect fuel in your car. From now on, consider those common causes of putting the wrong fuel in your vehicle:

  • Being in a hurry or flustered
  • Out of concentration since you are on autopilot
  • Vehicle you are utilizing is borrowed, you're not familiar with it

Contamination of fuel by water also results in the above symptoms.

You should keep in mind that the contamination of fuel by water is another issue that can cause similar signs described above. It does not matter whether your vehicle runs on diesel or petrol, water can also cause it to run roughly and ultimately stop. So you should also know about it.

In order to improve the cleanliness of modern diesel engines exhausts today, owner uses AdBlue. Having the correct ratio of AdBlue to fuel is important, hence why a separate tank for the AdBlue. If somebody directly added this to your tank not realizing the right tank to put it in, your engine will be in big trouble as it's is incorrect to mix it with fuel. The signs you will see is just like what were cited above but don't fret we get it fixed.

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.

    • 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.
