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


AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Lancashire we have seen increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of drivers not being totally sure the right way to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. In case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it asap. And certainly take care not to start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. In the instance that you did start the car you would in all probability have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Should you discover yourself to be in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our technicians have the practical competence and experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Very common fuel drain tales in Spring Hill:

Wrong Fuel in Car Lancashire - Petrol in Diesel Car Spring Hill

Now I am not ever excessively keen on carrying out work on Sundays, and last week was the same. I had only just departed the family filled with a lovely roast prepared for me by the missus, and I was off to sort out a man who filled the wrong fuel in his sombre grey Nissan Maxima. He was only in Spring Hill thus I arrived with him quickly. As I pulled up behind the car and stepped out he said to me "Thank the Almighty! I incredibly had my concentration on stuff and didn't ascertain I've put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I caused some damage by starting it?" I explained that there probably should not be damage and that also I'd get the wrong fuel drained right away for him. Naturally I drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle and put in the appropriate fuel, and so another satisfied client was able to continue on his ride without fuss. The gentleman couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and that makes earning a living on weekends in Lancashire that little better for me!

A young lady from Spring Hill with her kids in her diesel cream Nissan had filled her vehicle with £42 of petrol at the Shell service station. She phoned us crying and genuinely distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel and did not know what would happen to her car in doing so. We assured her that the vehicle should be ok and that she would be on the road soon. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but as our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she noticed that help was at hand and her car wasn't unfixable. She quickly cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I just can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Specifically with the little ones in the back."

Commonplace Misfueling Warning signs:

Here is a list of general wrong fuel symptoms or signs:

  • Loss of engine power
  • Vehicle dying, spluttering or hiccuping
  • Problems starting the automobile
  • Excessive smoking

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.
