The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!

We can help to fill up your vehicle if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to fill up the car. They will be able to handle any of the most common issues which can accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Warwickshire we have identified an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partially as a consequence of motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (please note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Since AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And obviously do not turn over the engine - not even to relocate it off the pump. Assuming you did start the car you will likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Give us a call in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to handle all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

It truly was what is called an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was roughly 3 in the morning and nobody was stirring. It had been pretty uneventful up to now, and me and John were sitting around looking through several old newspapers. That was an uncommon tranquil time in Warwickshire. It was in fact so peaceful that the instant my mobile finally rang it made me jump! The person explained: "I've ended my overnight shift and incredibly filled petrol in my diesel super VW by mistake". I instructed him to let us know exactly where he was located and we hit the road, getting to him in Ailstone less than an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleared from the vehicle. He thanked us profusely for coming so quickly. As we were going back home we saw two young women at the side of the street who looked like they suffered a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled up and helped them change it, much to their delight.

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.
