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


AdBlue In Diesel

All around Hampshire we have found progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of people not knowing how to work with it (remember: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. In the case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it immediately. And most certainly be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to shift it off of the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Contact us if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily fix all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

A fairly concerned driver called us from the Total petrol station at Hampshire to advise us that he had put petrol into his diesel brother's Audi RS 4; he wasn't quite certain how he'd managed to do it. We told him it was no problem and soon had our technician with him to drain the incorrect fuel from his vehicle. Having removed the bad fuel, he was shortly back on the road.

Wrong Fuel Assist Bishops Sutton - Wrong Fuel in Car Bishops Sutton

I'd had a terrific day fishing during the weekend and was feeling satisfied the next day as I headed out to help a young family holidaying in Bishops Sutton. They'd conked out after filling diesel in their blue Audi RS6, and the car was around an hour away. I turned up at their car and smiled to myself as I heard to the wife telling off her husband for turning out to be so foolish. "Just how could you even manage to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this situation happens all the time in Hampshire and that it's nothing at all to be anxious about, and yet he still got an earful. Unlucky boy. Anyways, I removed the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive away I shouted goodbye and considered what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I made the very same blunder... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!

We provide you with fresh fuel at pump rates, and we can generally have your vehicle corrected and all set to be run in under one hour.

This was exactly what is called an unsociable hour to be awake. It was close to 3:30 in the morning and almost noone was about. It was rather dead up to now, and me and Ray were relaxing looking at a couple of old articles. It was an unusual peaceful moment in Hampshire. Actually it was indeed that calm that the moment my mobile finally rang I leaped with surprise! The person said: "I have ended my overnight shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in a wife's Honda Accord by mistake". I told him to tell us exactly where he was and we hit the road, getting to him in Bishops Sutton under an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was cleared from the engine and he said many thanks for arriving so fast. While we were returning to the depot we found two young women at the side of the highway who seemed to have a flat tyre. As a result we pulled over and helped them change it, 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 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.
