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


Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car or truck parking spot we can access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout East Riding of Yorkshire we are identifying increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part caused by motorists not understanding the way to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?

Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. In the case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it asap. And obviously do not start up the engine - not even to maneuver it from the pump. Assuming you did start the car you will very likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed.

Call us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to correct every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

A motorist had stopped just off a road in Northfield. His teal Cadillac DTS motor had stopped running and he had no idea what was faulty until he realised he had put petrol in his diesel car. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he explained to us: "I can not believe that I didn't know that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He said that he had gotten zero sleep the day before and that could have been the reason.

I wouldn't like being stranded in a vehicle full of the improper fuel in the middle of the road. Our most recent customer who filled her car with the wrong fuel (faithful Volkswagen Scirocco) in Northfield suffered from exactly that kind of problem: "Obviously I erroneously filled my petrol car with diesel recently. I was so distressed about contaminating my fuel that I was in tears. And yet I shouldn't have concerned myself as you were outstanding in fixing it."

This was an unsociable hour to be awake. It was about 2:30am and almost noone was about. It had become quite dead so far, and me and Ryan were sitting looking through a few old magazines. That was an uncommon quiet moment in East Riding of Yorkshire. Actually it was in fact that calm that the moment the phone eventually rang I leaped with surprise! The motorist told me: "I've only just ended my overnight shift and foolishly poured petrol in the diesel cream Seat Alhumbra". I instructed him to tell us exactly where the vehicle was and we left, arriving in Northfield under half an hour later. The wrong fuel was extracted from the car. He said many thanks for arriving so quickly. While we were returning to base we noticed two women on the side of the highway who appeared to have a flat. As a result we pulled up to help them change it, much to their delight.

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.

Typical Misfueling Symptoms:

Here is a list of routine wrong fuel signs and symptoms:

  • Decrease in vehicle power
  • Motor conking out, spluttering and / or coughing
  • Hassles starting the motor
  • Abnormal smoke
