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


AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Barnet we have noticed an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly due to drivers not knowing the way to use it (pay attention: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. If you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it asap. And obviously be careful not to crank the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking place. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Give us a call in the event that you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can take care of all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in EN5 Postcode - Barnet Gate Misfueling

What a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a warm Bank Holiday Monday and we were en route to assist an older lovely lady after she had put petrol in her diesel super Citron DS3 in Barnet Gate. I had been told she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and pulled up on a country lane on the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got her location punched in the TomTom and was with her within an hour or so. I turned up at the vehicle and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. As I was doing the work she said, "Now I'm becoming quite forgetful in my old age and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel as I'd just acquired it a couple of days back when my other car, which I owned for about twenty five years, eventually broke down". I got the job completed and she gave me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. What a precious Barnet lady!

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.
