The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Diesel

All around Somerset we have found a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of drivers being unsure of how to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

As the product is primarily ionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And most definitely take care not to crank the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. In the event that you have started the car you would in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Phone us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can take care of every type of AdBlue liquid 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.
