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


AdBlue In Diesel

All over County Durham we are discovering a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the car.

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

As the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely be careful not to start the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking place. In the instance that you did start the car you will very likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Should you end up in this scenario don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our technicians have got the practical skills and experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

We recently got a phone call from a motorist who had put the incorrect fuel in his faithful Cadillac CTS-V in Fulthorpe. He had ground to a halt on the street. "After adding petrol in my diesel car I didn't notice the problem before I ground to a halt. You drained the wrong fuel from my car and had it functioning again. I was impressed by both how fast you were and your rates". Of course we appeared punctually and flushed the engine after draining all of the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank. On arrival the engineer said the driver was fuming, but was very happy afterwards.

A woman driving in Fulthorpe called us as soon as she tried to get her wrong fueled car to her office. She had filled unleaded in her diesel burgundy red Peugeot and, like plenty prior to her, thought that she would be able to basically fill the tank with diesel and it'd be alright. The vehicle was spluttering and then it stopped when she got to the entrance of her work. We promptly started on the fuel drain after she called and had it sorted within an hour or so while she was at work. She came outside later on and thanked us stating, "I'm really happy you sorted my car."

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.
