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


AdBlue In your Fuel

In Lincolnshire we are encountering more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part as a result of drivers not being aware of how to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. If perhaps you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And most certainly take care not to crank the motor - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you will in all probability need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Any time you discover yourself to be in this position do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our engineers have the practical skills and experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Waste Fuel Disposal

We have been called out to quite a few private and business properties in Lincolnshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a garage, if we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

A woman had broken down on a road, Bucknall just after having wrong fueled. She was weeping and truly troubled as she had put £50 of petrol in her diesel car. When she contacted us we attempted to calm her as best we could, assuring her that all would be alright.

Wrong Fuel in Car Lincolnshire - Petrol in Diesel Car Bucknall

We carried out a wrong fuel retrieval exercise on the drive of a spectacular house in Bucknall not so long ago. "I put the wrong fuel in my diesel car and was able to very nearly get home when my car quit." Our technician went out, even though it was pretty late at night, and did a fuel drain and purge on the precious Toyota Solara to everyone's satisfaction.

This was exactly the night shift. It was roughly dawn and hardly anyone was stirring. It was quite dead so far, and me and Paul were relaxing reading through a couple of old articles. It was an unusual tranquil hour in Lincolnshire. Actually it was in fact that tranquil that the moment the phone inevitably rang it made me start! The voice on the phone stated: "I have just ended my overnight shift and foolishly put petrol in my diesel company's Seat". I got him to let us know where exactly he was and we left, reaching him in Bucknall only an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car. He said many thanks for coming out so rapidly. While we were going back to the office we spotted two girls on the side of the highway who looked like they suffered a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled up and helped them change it, 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 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.
