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


AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Somerset we have seen more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly due to drivers not understanding how to use it (take note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it is like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it immediately. And obviously don't start up the car - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would very likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

In the event that you get in this scenario don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our technicians possess the specialised know-how and working experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Wrong Fuel in Car in BA2 Postcode - Wicklane Misfueling

What a fantastic night of sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a rainy Bank Holiday Monday and I was on my way to assist an old lovely lady who had put petrol in her diesel sombre grey Mazda Navajo in Wicklane. She informed us that she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and was pulled up on a backwater lane along the way to visit her godchildren. I punched the location in the TomTom and got there within 60 minutes. I turned up at the vehicle and removed the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she told me, "I have been becoming quite forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car needing diesel as I had only bought it several days back when my previous one, which I had had for over twenty years, eventually died on me". I finished the drain and she offered me a toffee and said thanks. What a pleasant Somerset lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Wicklane

It can't be fun being stuck in a car full of the improper fuel halfway down the street. One of our most recent customers who filled up her tank with the wrong fuel (raspberry red Mazda RX-8) in Wicklane suffered from literally this type of crisis: "You may already know that I erroneously filled my petrol car with diesel recently. I was so distressed about contaminating my fuel that I was actually in tears. Fortunately I didn't need to worry seeing as you were brilliant in resolving my problem."

Wrong Fuel Doctor Wicklane - Fuel Rescue Wicklane

It truly was what we call the night shift. It was around 3:30 in the morning and almost noone was stirring. It had become rather uneventful so far, and me and Ray were sitting about reading some old newspapers. That was an unusual tranquil time in Somerset. Actually it was indeed so relaxing that the instant the telephone ultimately rang it made me jump! The customer on the other end said: "I've just ended my evening shift and stupidly put petrol in my diesel metallic yellow Audi A8". We instructed him to let us know exactly where the vehicle was situated and we headed out, reaching him in Wicklane not as much as an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed from the motor and he said thank you for showing up so quickly. As we were returning to the office we noticed two ladies on the edge of the road who appeared to have a flat. Accordingly we pulled over and helped them change it, much to their elation.

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.
