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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question an important situation to address in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel is going to lead to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both cases quite quickly.

Be aware though that if the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel Assist Holloway - Wrong Fuel in Car Holloway

I had enjoyed a great day fishing on my off day and felt satisfied with myself the following day as I was on the way to assist a new family who were away in Holloway. They conked out after adding diesel in their buff BMW Z3, and they were close to an hour's travel away. I arrived at their position and laughed to myself while I listened to the lady chastising her partner for actually being so confused. "Exactly how could you conceivably find a way to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to explain that this kind of thing happens on daily basis in Wiltshire and that it's in reality nothing to worry about, but he in spite of everything had an ear bashing. Unlucky lad. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the proper fuel. As they drove off I shouted good-bye and wondered what my wife would tell me if ever I did the same thing... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Holloway

I'm not very interested in working on Sundays, and a week ago was no different. I had only just left the wife and kids following a magnificent Sunday roast cooked by the better half, and I was off to assist a man because he put the wrong fuel in his green Mazda626. He was located in Holloway thus I arrived with him rapidly. As I drove up at the rear of the vehicle and started work he told me "Thank the Lord! I had my thoughts on other things and failed to realise I've put diesel in my petrol car. Have I caused damage through starting it?" I determined that truth be told there shouldn't be problems and also that I'd remove the fuel at once for him. As expected I drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and put in the appropriate fuel, and one more contented client was able to carry on with their ride without any hassle. He couldn't stop thanking me, and that makes earning a living on Sundays in Wiltshire that tiny bit less painful for me personally!

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.
