The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue Contamination

In Staffordshire we are discovering a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent caused by people not knowing how to work with it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

As the product is primarily ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And of course never start up the motor - not even to shift it away from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will most likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Contact us in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to attend to all types 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 VAT 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.
