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


AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Greater Manchester we have found increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a result of drivers not being aware of the right way to to make use of (note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Seeing as the product is mainly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If in case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And of course don't crank the vehicle - not even to move it off of the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you would probably need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

If perhaps you find yourself in this predicament don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination business. Our experts have the practical knowledge and working experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Ahhh, that was a great night's sleep! 7:30 am on a rainy Monday and we were off to assist an old woman who put the wrong fuel in her diesel luxury Honda Prelude in Higher End. She informed us that she had driven away from the petrol station and was stranded on a backwater road en route to see her grandchildren. I plugged the location in the TomTom and got there within an hour. I got to the vehicle and removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle. As I was doing the work she said to me, "I'm getting somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle needing diesel since I'd only just bought it a couple of days back because my previous car, which I'd had for about thirty years, eventually died on me". I finished the drain and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. What a precious Greater Manchester 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 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.
