Small Amount of Petrol in Diesel

Many drivers ask, “Will a small amount of petrol damage a diesel engine?” The answer is yes. No amount of petrol should be added to a diesel car. Even a small quantity can lead to problems, engine damage, and engine failure.

We would advise that you do not start the engine or drive the car until a fuel technician has looked at your vehicle.

Our wrong fuel drain technicians are in your area and aim to be with you within 35 minutes. We possess the capability to extract contaminated fuel from cars, vans, 4x4s, motorbikes and lorries that have experienced misfuelling.

Small Amount of Diesel in Petrol

A small amount of diesel in a petrol car can still cause significant problems. The contaminated fuel needs to be drained from your fuel tank, fuel lines and fuel system before the engine is started.

Contact Fuel Hero for assistance. Our technicians drain the fuel tank, clean the fuel system and refill the fuel tank with the correct fuel.

Our goal is to ensure 100% satisfaction, offering fair and competitive prices.

It’s more common than filling a petrol with diesel, and it’s easily done. Don’t panic, we can help. It is a fuel-ish mistake, but hundreds of people do it daily. Don’t be hard on yourself.

How Much Does a Fuel Drain Cost

Our emergency fuel drain expert services start from £130. The cost depends on several factors:

These factors include your location, the type of vehicle involved, and whether the engine has been started following the misfueling.

Additionally, the amount of contaminated fuel that requires extraction will influence the final quote.

AdBlue is a diesel exhaust fluid used in modern diesel engines to reduce emissions. It should never be added to the fuel tank. If you’ve accidentally put AdBlue in your fuel tank, do not start the engine.

Our technicians are fully trained and equipped with ATEX equipment to safely handle AdBlue contamination. We can drain the contaminated fuel, clean the fuel system and prevent costly damage to your vehicle.

What to Do if AdBlue Runs Out

If your AdBlue warning light comes on and you run out of AdBlue, the vehicle will not start once the engine is switched off. This is different from AdBlue in the fuel tank, which is a contamination issue requiring immediate fuel drain services.

Water contamination requires immediate attention. The water must be removed from the fuel tank and fuel system before it causes permanent damage to your engine components.

Diesel fuel is particularly susceptible to water contamination. Water is heavier than diesel and settles at the bottom of the fuel tank, where the fuel pump draws from. This means water is the first thing to enter your engine.

Water Contamination Damage

Water in your fuel system can cause serious issues like corrosion of fuel system components and microbial growth in diesel tanks. Left untreated, this contamination leads to fuel filter blockage and significant damage to the fuel pump and injectors.

Ultimately, these factors can result in total engine damage and failure, making immediate extraction vital.

Our fuel technicians can remove water contamination, drain the affected fuel, and clean your fuel system. We use professional equipment to ensure all water is removed before refilling with clean fuel.

Contaminated fuel must be drained immediately to prevent damage to your vehicle’s fuel system and engine. Our wrong fuel recovery service will drain your car’s fuel tank of all contaminated fuel and add enough clean fuel to get you back on the road again.

If you experience any of these symptoms after refuelling, stop the vehicle safely and contact Fuel Hero immediately. Do not continue driving with contaminated fuel in your system.

Contaminated Fuel Disposal

Contaminated fuel must be disposed of properly and in accordance with environmental regulations. Our service includes safe disposal of contaminated fuel.

We are fully insured and use ATEX equipment to handle fuel safely. The contaminated fuel is transported to licenced facilities for proper disposal, ensuring environmental compliance.

Fuel Hero provides rapid response fuel drain services to address fuel contamination issues. Whether your vehicle has been started or driven, we can help. We fix 99% of cars at the roadside within 30 minutes.

However, if fuel contamination occurs, professional help is essential. Do not attempt to dilute contaminated fuel by adding more fuel. This can spread contamination throughout the fuel system and cause more extensive damage.

Fuel System Damage from Contamination

Fuel contamination causes widespread damage, specifically leading to fuel pump overheating from a loss of lubrication and clogged fuel injectors that result in poor spray patterns. This contamination also causes fuel filter blockage, which restricts flow and forces the engine to suffer from scoring, seizure, or total failure.

Furthermore, it can lead to catalytic converter contamination, resulting in permanent damage to your exhaust system.

Our technicians assess the extent of contamination and provide the appropriate fuel drain service. We clean fuel lines, replace fuel filters if necessary and ensure your fuel system is ready for operation.

If you realise you’ve misfuelled your vehicle, do not start the engine. Contact Fuel Hero for assistance.

Don’t panic. Our fuel drain technicians have experience with vehicles that have been started or driven with the wrong fuel. We can still help, though the service may require additional fuel system cleaning.

Misfuelled but Not Started

If you’ve misfuelled but not started the engine, you’re in the best position. Contaminated fuel is only in the fuel tank and has not circulated through the fuel system.

This ensures a quicker fuel drain process with significantly less risk of component damage. By addressing the issue early, you benefit from a lower service cost and a much faster recovery time, getting you back on the road safely and affordably.

Call us immediately on 0333 772 9247 before starting the engine. We can be with you within 35 minutes.
