The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue Contamination

All around County Durham we have identified progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly due to drivers being unsure of how to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the automobile.

Now, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Because the product is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. If perhaps you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And definitely take care not to crank the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking area. Assuming you have started the car you may very likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Call us if you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can attend to all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

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 VA 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.
