The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Greater Manchester we have identified an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to people not knowing the way to to make use of (be aware: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained asap. And most definitely never switch on the engine - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In cases where you have started the car you will in all probability have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Contact us in the event that you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to fix all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

This was most definitely an unsociable hour to be awake. It was close to 3:30 in the morning and noone was about. It was pretty quiet so far, and me and John were loafing around browsing several old articles. It was a rare peaceful time in Greater Manchester. Actually it was in fact that calm that the instant my mobile rang I leaped with surprise! The person stated: "I have only just ended my overnight shift and foolishly poured petrol in the diesel spotless Audi Coupe GT in error". We told him to inform us just where the car was situated and we left, ending up in Pimhole an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the vehicle. He thanked us for showing up so rapidly. As we were returning home we saw two ladies at the side of the road who looked like they had a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled over to change it, much to their delight.

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.
