The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Lancashire we have encountered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially stemming from motorists not knowing the way to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?

Because the product is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. If you find you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most certainly don't switch on the engine - not even to maneuver it off the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may most likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Give us a call in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to attend to different types 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.
