It was after 9 pm on a Thursday and though we were assured a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining!

Finally we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had arrived at the BP petrol garage in Burnham-on-Sea and filled petrol in a diesel new VW Touareg rental by mistake. She was quite distressed it seemed, crying "I can not believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!"

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


AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Somerset we have encountered a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of drivers not knowing the right way to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely never start up the engine - not even to shift it from the pump. If you did start the car you would in all probability have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Phone us in the event that you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily correct every type of AdBlue 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.
