The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a car parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've successfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

AdBlue Contamination

All around East Sussex we are discovering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mostly due to drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And definitely don't switch on the motor - not even to move it off the pump. In case you have started the car you may in all probability need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Should you get in this scenario don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our engineers have the practical knowledge and experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

What a good night's sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Saturday and I was off to assist an older sweetheart after she had put petrol in her diesel dirty red Jeep Wrangler in Five Ashes. She informed us that she had left the filling station forecourt and stranded in a rural road on route to pay a visit to her family. I got the location punched into the TomTom and arrived within an hour or so. I turned up at the stricken lady and removed the contaminated fuel in the car car. As I was working she explained, "I'm becoming somewhat forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle using diesel since I had only just bought it several days ago when my other one, which I'd had for in excess of 25 years, finally gave up the ghost". I completed the job and she presented me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a precious East Sussex woman!

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.
