The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Norfolk we have discovered progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If you find you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And certainly do not start the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking bay. In the instance that you did start the car you will very likely have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

In case you end up in this scenario do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the technical knowledge and experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Wrong Fuel Assist Longham - Wrong Fuel in Car Longham

I'd had a perfect day cycling on my holiday and was feeling satisfied the following morning as I set out to aid a new family vacationing in Longham. They'd conked out after putting petrol in their raspberry red Ford Transit, and the car was approximately half an hour's travel away. I showed up at their position and laughed to myself while I heard to the lady telling her husband off for being so daft. "Just how could you even find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this takes place continuously in Norfolk and that it is nothing at all to be anxious about, even so he still had his ear bent by his wife. I felt genuine sympathy for the lad. Anyhow, I removed the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. As they drove away I waved good bye and considered what her indoors would say to me if I made the exact same mistake... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!

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.
