The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Diesel

All over County Durham we are noticing an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of people not being aware of the way to to make use of (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the car.

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

Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it right away. And definitely be careful not to switch on the engine - not even to shift it from the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

In case you end up in this situation do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our engineers possess the technical competence and experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

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.
