Inevitably we had the phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Flordon and put the wrong fuel in a diesel grey Vauxhall Monaro hire car. The unfortunate lady was very troubled it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe that I've messed up the car! I'm just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that such things regrettably do happen.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Norfolk we have encountered an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of drivers not being aware of the way to to make use of (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. In the event that you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it asap. And absolutely be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it off of the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will probably need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

In the event that you discover yourself to be in this scenario don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination business. Our engineers have got the technical competence and experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

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.

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.
