The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue Contamination

In Lincolnshire we have seen a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of drivers not understanding the way to to make use of (be aware: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at once. And certainly do not switch on the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking area. If you have started the vehicle you may likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Call us if it turns out you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to take care of all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

This was most definitely the night shift. It was around 2 in the morning and almost noone was about. It had been fairly dead up to now, and Brian and I were relaxing perusing several old newspapers. It was an unusual calm hour in Lincolnshire. Actually it was in fact that peaceful that the instant the phone rang it made me start! The customer on the opposite end stated: "I've just finished my night shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in a diesel grey Cadillac Eldorado by mistake". We told him to inform us where exactly the car was and we left, arriving in Ludborough under an hour later. The fuel was extracted from the car and he said thank you for getting there so rapidly. While we were coming back home we saw two women on the edge of the street who appeared to have a flat. Accordingly we stopped 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.
