The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Diesel

In Northamptonshire we have discovered a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent caused by motorists not being aware of how to work with it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what's the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. In case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained asap. And of course never switch on the vehicle - not even to move it away from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you would in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Call us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can attend to all types of AdBlue liquid 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 VAT 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.
