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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel may lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances pretty easily.

You should know that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and unusable.

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

I'd had a perfect afternoon golfing during the weekend and felt contented with myself the next working day as I set off to aid a new couple vacationing in Liden. They'd stopped after adding the wrong fuel in their red Mitsubishi Outlander, and were about half an hour's drive away. I arrived at their position and smiled to myself while I heard to the woman telling her man off for being so stupid. "Just how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this situation occurs continuously in Wiltshire and that it's absolutely nothing to fret about, however he all the same had an earful. Unlucky chap. Anyway, I removed the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some right fuel. Watching as they drove off I shouted farewell and considered what my missus would ask me if perhaps I did the same thing... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Liden

I am not very hot for doing work on Sundays, and a while back was the same. I'd only just come away from the family after having a superb roast made by the wife, and I was on the way to assist a fellow who filled the incorrect fuel in his burgundy red Subaru Impreza WRX. He was only in Liden therefore I was on scene before long. Just as I pulled up behind the vehicle and got out he told me "Thank the Almighty! I had my attention on something else and failed to ascertain I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I inflicted damage as a result of running it?" I determined that generally there probably should not be any problems and that also I'd get the wrong fuel drained right away for him. Naturally I got the wrong fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some suitable fuel, and thus yet another contented customer had the ability to continue on their journey without any subsequent difficulty. He did not stop thanking me, and that is what helps make operating on weekends in Wiltshire just that little bit better to 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:

    • 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.
