The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Norfolk we are encountering increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part caused by people not knowing how to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. In case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And most definitely don't start the car - not even to shift it into a parking bay. Assuming you have started the car you will almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

    • 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.
