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


AdBlue In Diesel

All around Norfolk we have encountered a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to motorists not being aware of how to use it (pay attention: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Because the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. In the case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And certainly never turn over the engine - not even to shift it from the pump. In case you have started the car you may most likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Call us if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car Norfolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Meeting House Hill

Now I am not excessively keen on doing the job Sundays, and last week was no different. I had just departed home after having a wonderful Sunday roast made for me by the missus, and I was on the way to help a guy who had filled the incorrect petrol in his Ferarri red Peugeot Expert. He was somewhere in Meeting House Hill and so it wouldn't be a long time before I reached him. As I arrived at the car and got out he explained to me "Thank the Lord! I stupidly had my concentration on stuff and didn't ascertain I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I created damage by simply running it?" I stated generally there should not be any kind of damage and that I'd get the wrong fuel drained as soon as possible. Needless to say I removed the fuel from the car and filled up with some correct fuel, and thus another happy customer could carry on with their ride with no fuss. He couldn't stop thanking me, and that tends to make carrying out work on weekends in Norfolk that tiny bit better for me!

A customer employed in Meeting House Hill phoned us shortly after she had tried to get her misfueled vehicle to the office. She had put petrol in her diesel sombre grey Renault Espace and, like many prior to her, believed that she would be able to basically fill her vehicle with diesel and it'd be okay. The engine was chugging and then it stopped when she arrived at the the front of her office. We promptly started on the fuel drain after she called and had it resolved in 60 minutes whilst she was at the office. She came outside later on and thanked us saying, "I'm very glad you fixed my car."

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.
