The unfortunate lady was pretty distressed apparently, stating "I simply can't believe I have ruined the car!

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


AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Bedfordshire we are discovering increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a result of people not knowing the right way to use it (pay attention: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to one another on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Because the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you find you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained asap. And most definitely do not switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking place. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Phone us if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will attend to different types 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 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.
