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


AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout County Durham we have identified a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part stemming from motorists not knowing the right way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the vehicle.

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

Since AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In the case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it immediately. And of course don't start up the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking place. If you have started the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Call us in the event that you are going through AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to handle all kinds 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 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.
