The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over North Yorkshire we have seen more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of people not understanding the way to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely do not turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will very likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Call us in the event that you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to take care of all kinds of AdBlue 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.
