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


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car parking bay we are able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Leicestershire we are noticing an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent thanks to motorists not being totally sure how to use it (take note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If in case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it asap. And of course do not crank the engine - not even to move it into a parking spot. In cases where you have started the vehicle you may in all probability need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Any time you find yourself in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our experts possess the specialised know-how and working experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

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.
