The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you should do in the event that you have poured AdBlue in your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid made of a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It tends to be damaging to your car's fuel system, particularly any time you have had the engine running with AdBlue in your fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the AdBlue will likely be dragged into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, causing serious and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

Should you discover yourself to be in this scenario don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our experts have got the technical knowledge and experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Wrong Fuel in Car in DL11 Postcode - Aldbrough St John Misfueling

What a fantastic night of sleep! 7:00 am on a bright Wednesday and we were on the way to assist an older lady who had put petrol in her diesel grey Nissan Maxima in Aldbrough St John. I had been advised she had left the petrol station forecourt and broken down along a backwater lane en route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got the location punched straight into the TomTom and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I reached the stricken lady and removed the wrong fuel from the car. As I was doing it she explained, "I am becoming fairly absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the car working with diesel because I'd only acquired it a few days back when my old one, which I'd had for in excess of thirty years, eventually died". I got the drain completed and she offered me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. What a pleasant North Yorkshire lady!

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.
