The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Shropshire we are finding a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of people being unsure of the right way to use it (please note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Since the product is predominantly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. Assuming you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And definitely don't switch on the car - not even to shift it from the pump. In cases where you have started the car you may probably need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.

If you find yourself in this situation don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our engineers possess the specialised skills and experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

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.
