The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue Contamination

Throughout North Yorkshire we have discovered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent due to people not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (remember: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If you find you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And absolutely don't start the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will very likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Contact us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to take care of all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

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.
