The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a car parking bay we are able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've successfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Herefordshire we are identifying a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by people being unsure of how to work with it (pay attention: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out at once. And of course be careful not to start the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. If you have started the vehicle you will probably have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Give us a call if you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to attend to all types of AdBlue contamination.

This really was the graveyard shift. It was around sunrise and almost noone was stirring. It had become quite dead until now, and me and Paul were loafing reading a couple of old magazines. It was a rare peaceful time in Herefordshire. It was that peaceful that when the phone ultimately rang I jumped with surprise! The person on the other end said: "I only just finished my overnight shift and stupidly poured petrol in a grass green VW GLI in error". We told him to tell us where the vehicle was and we headed out, getting to him in Kinnersley under an hour later. The contaminated fuel was extracted from the engine and he thanked us profusely for arriving so promptly. As we were heading back to the depot we noticed two women at the side of the highway who looked like they suffered a flat tyre. As a result we pulled over to change it, much to their delight.

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.

Typical Wrong Fuel Symptoms:

Here's a list of usual wrong fuel symptoms or signs:

  • Reduced vehicle power
