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


AdBlue In Diesel

In Worcestershire we have seen more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially thanks to people not understanding the right way to to make use of (please note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Well, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting 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. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And obviously never switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking area. In cases where you have started the car you will likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Should you end up in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our technicians have the technical skills and experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

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.
