The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Gloucestershire we are encountering an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a result of people being unsure of the way to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the automobile.

So, what's the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car?

Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And most certainly don't crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you would in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

In the event that you end up in this predicament do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our experts possess the specialised expertise and experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

They stopped after filling petrol into their brand new Austin Mini Cooper, and they were around an hour away. I arrived at their car and laughed to myself as I listened to the girl telling her husband off for actually being so stupid.

I wanted to tell her that this goes on quite frequently in Gloucestershire and that it is nothing at all to stress about, nonetheless he all the same had an ear bashing by his wife. Unfortunate lad. Anyhow, I extracted all the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the proper fuel.

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.
