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


AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Greater Manchester we are discovering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers not being totally sure the way to use it (please note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you find you put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it at once. And definitely never switch on the engine - not even to move it off the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Phone us if you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will take care of every type of AdBlue contamination.

This was exactly the night shift. It was close to dawn and noone was around. It had become fairly dead until now, and me and Paul were sitting around looking through some old papers. That was a rare peaceful moment in Greater Manchester. It was indeed so relaxing that the instant my mobile eventually rang it made me jump! The voice on the opposite end said: "I've finished my evening shift and incredibly put petrol in my diesel matte black Lexus LFA in error". We got him to inform us just where the vehicle was and we hit the road, reaching him in Matley not as much as an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the engine and he said many thanks for arriving so rapidly. As we were going back to the office we saw two women at the edge of the street who appeared to have a flat. As a result we pulled over to change it, to their elation.

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.
