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


AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Somerset we are noticing increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly a result of motorists not knowing the way to work with it (please note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out immediately. And definitely don't switch on the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking area. Assuming you did start the car you would very likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Contact us if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Nethercott

Now I am not ever too hot for running on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I had just left the wife and kids after having a fantastic lunch prepared for us by the better half, and I was on my way to deal with a man after he filled the wrong fuel in his uncle's Honda CR-V. He was stationed in Nethercott thus it wasn't long before I arrived with him. As I drove up behind the car and got busy draining he said to me "Praise the Lord! I incredibly had my thoughts on other stuff and failed to ascertain I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. I need to know if I brought about any kind of damage through starting it?" I explained that truth be told there should not be any kind of problems and also I'd personally get the fuel drained right away for him. It goes without saying that I removed the wrong fuel from the car and put in the appropriate fuel, and yet another content customer was able to continue their trip without any fuss. He could not stop thanking me, and this is exactly what tends to make carrying out work on weekends in Somerset that little bit better for me!

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.
