The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Diesel

All over East Sussex we have seen increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent due to motorists not knowing the right way to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And definitely be careful not to start the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. Assuming you did start the car you may likely have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Contact us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to take care of every type of AdBlue fluid 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 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.
