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


AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Dorset we are encountering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of drivers not knowing how to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

As the product is primarily deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If in case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it asap. And obviously be careful not to switch on the car - not even to shift it from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may in all probability need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Give us a call in the event that you are going through AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to handle every type of AdBlue contamination.

They pulled over after filling diesel in their dark green Toyota Cressida, and were about an hour away. I emerged at their location and smirked while I heard to the lady chastising her husband for being so foolish. "Just how could you even find a way to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him.

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.
