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


AdBlue In Diesel

All over Cambridgeshire we are finding progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a result of motorists not being aware of how to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to one another on the automobile.

Now, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it right away. And of course be careful not to turn over the motor - not even to move it into a parking area. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you would in all likelihood need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Whenever you end up in this situation don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our technicians have the specialised competence and experience to have you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

    • 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

  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.
