The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Lincolnshire we are identifying increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially stemming from motorists being unsure of how to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the car.

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

As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. In the event that you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And absolutely don't switch on the vehicle - not even to move it away from the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you will very likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Give us a call in the event that you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will attend to every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car Lincolnshire - Petrol in Diesel Car Skellingthorpe

Now I am not actually very inclined to working Sundays, and a while back was no different. I had only just departed the family following a wonderful Sunday roast cooked for us by the wife, and I was on the way to deal with a man who had filled the wrong fuel in his khaki green Saab 9000. He was only in Skellingthorpe thus it wasn't long before I got to him. Just as I drove up right behind the vehicle and stepped out he explained to me "Praise the Lord! I foolishly had my attention on something else and didn't perceive I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Have I brought about some problems by starting it?" I explained that generally there probably should not be any damage and also I'd personally get the contaminated fuel drained immediately for him. As expected I drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and put in some appropriate fuel, and so yet another contented client had the ability to carry on with their traveling with no fuss. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and that is exactly what helps make working on weekends in Lincolnshire just that small bit less painful in my opinion!

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.
