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


AdBlue In Diesel

All around Lancashire we are encountering an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partially a result of people not knowing the right way to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If you find you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And obviously never turn over the engine - not even to move it from the pump. In cases where you have started the car you would probably need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Phone us if you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will handle every type of AdBlue liquid 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 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.
