The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Suffolk we are encountering progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of people not being aware of how to to make use of (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at once. And obviously be careful not to start the motor - not even to shift it off of the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will most likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Call us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to fix every type of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car Suffolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Botesdale

Now I'm not ever excessively hot for running weekends, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I had just departed the family after eating a tasty lunch cooked for us by the better half, and I was on my way to help a gentleman after he filled the incorrect petrol in his boss' Volvo V40. He was only in Botesdale so I arrived on scene soon. Just as I arrived right behind the car and stepped out he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I incredibly had my mind on stuff and did not realise I've put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I created some damage through starting it?" I said there shouldn't be any kind of problems and also that I would get the contaminated fuel drained as soon as possible for him. Naturally I drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and put in the appropriate fuel, and so another delighted motorist had the ability to continue his journey without bother. The man could not stop thanking me, and that is actually what helps make working on weekends in Suffolk just that small bit easier for me!

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.
