The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car parking spot we can gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can potentially trigger idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both circumstances rather expediently.

Remember though that so long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will be completely water-logged and useless.

What a great night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a sunny Saturday and we were on the way to help an older lovely lady after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel dad's VW GTI in Abberley. She informed us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and was pulled up in a backwater lane en route to visit her grandchildren. I got her location plugged straight into the Satnav and was with her inside an hour or so. I arrived at the location and drained the contaminated fuel from the car. Whilst I was working she explained, "I am getting quite absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel because I'd only just got it a week ago when my other one, which I'd owned for more than twenty five years, inevitably stopped working". I got the job completed and she gave me a toffee and said thank you. Such a precious Worcestershire lady!

Wrong Fuel Assist Abberley - Wrong Fuel in Car Abberley

I'd had a perfect evening fishing during my holiday and was feeling delighted with myself the next working day as I set off to assist a young family holidaying in Abberley. They'd stopped after adding diesel in their dark blue Chevrolet Colorado, and were roughly an hour away. I emerged at their position and smiled to myself as I listened to the woman telling her partner off for being so confused. "Exactly how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I tried to explain that this happens on a regular basis in Worcestershire and that it's truly absolutely nothing to get worried about, nonetheless he in spite of everything had his ear bent. I felt genuine sympathy for the guy. At any rate, I removed all the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted farewell and pondered on what my wife would say to me if I did the same thing... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

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.
