The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Hampshire we have discovered a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent stemming from people not being totally sure how to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. If in case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And certainly be careful not to switch on the engine - not even to move it from the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may most likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Contact us in the event that you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily attend to all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Thornhill - Wrong Fuel in Car Thornhill

I'd had a fantastic evening fishing on my holiday and felt satisfied the following morning as I headed out to aid a young family holidaying in Thornhill. They'd conked out after filling the wrong fuel in their beautiful Cadillac Brougham, and were around half an hour's travel away. I got there at their car and laughed to myself as I listened to the gal chastising her man for actually being so silly. "Exactly how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I tried to tell her that this occurs on a regular basis in Hampshire and that it's absolutely nothing to be concerned about, and yet he yet still had his ear bent by his missus. Unfortunate lad. In any case, I extracted all the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved good-bye and considered what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I did the same thing... I'd personally never live it down!

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.
