The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

In Harrow we have found progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent caused by people not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it asap. And of course never switch on the engine - not even to move it into a parking area. In the event that you did start the car you will probably have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Whenever you discover yourself to be in this scenario do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our technicians have got the practical expertise and experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

This was most definitely an unsociable hour to be up. It was close to sunrise and noone was stirring. It had become rather quiet so far, and me and Mark were loafing looking at several old articles. This was an uncommon calm moment in Harrow. It was in fact so relaxing that when the telephone rang it made me jump! The voice on the other end explained: "I finished my night shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in my uncle's Jeep Cherokee". I told him to let us know just where he was and we left, getting to him in Stanmore under an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was cleared from the motor and he said thank you for arriving so promptly. While we were going back home we found two young ladies at the edge of the highway who seemed like they had a puncture. So we got out to 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.
