The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue Contamination

In Norfolk we have found a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of people being unsure of the right way to to make use of (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. If in case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out immediately. And certainly take care not to crank the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. In cases where you have started the car you would in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Any time you get in this situation don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the specialised competence and experience to have you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

We did a wrong fuel removal job near a lovely residential home in Narborough not so long ago. "I put unleaded in my diesel car and was able to nearly reach home when my car quit."

A customer from Narborough with a full car of children in her diesel red Mazda323 had put £40 of petrol at the filling station. She phoned us sobbing and extremely worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and didn't know what might happen to her vehicle in doing so. We told her that all should be fine and that she would be back ready to go in no time at all. When we arrived on scene she was visible distressed but while our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she noticed that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked. She quickly brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Specifically with the little ones in the back."

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.
