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


AdBlue Contamination

What to do in case you’ve poured AdBlue in a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that is made of a blend of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It is actually harmful to your car's fuel system, particularly if you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started the AdBlue will be pushed into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, leading to serious and costly harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

Contact us if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Harrowden - Wrong Fuel in Car Harrowden

I had enjoyed a great afternoon golfing on the weekend and felt contented the following working day as I set off to assist a new family holidaying in Harrowden. They'd broken down after filling the wrong fuel into their blue Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class, and were around half an hour away. I turned up at their location and smirked to myself as I listened to the lady telling her husband off for being so daft. "Exactly how could you even find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to explain that this takes place all the time in Bedfordshire and that it is nothing to stress about, but he yet still had an earful. I felt genuine sympathy for the lad. In any case, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted good-bye and wondered what her indoors would say to me if I made the exact same mistake... I'd never live it down!

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.
