The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Northumberland we have identified more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by people being unsure of the way to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If you find you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And of course never turn over the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking area. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would probably have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Should you discover yourself to be in this situation do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the specialised competence and experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

A lady from Kirkwhelpington with a full car of youngsters in her diesel friend's VW GTI had filled her car with £20 of petrol at the BP petrol station. She phoned us weeping and genuinely worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel car before and didn't know what might happen to her car because of it. We assured her that the vehicle would be okay and that she would be back up and running in no time at all.

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.
