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


AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Lancashire we are noticing more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mainly stemming from people not knowing the right way to to make use of (please note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

As the product is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In the case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it immediately. And obviously do not switch on the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. In the instance that you have started the car you would probably have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Give us a call in the event that you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can take care of all types of AdBlue fluid 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.
