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


AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Somerset we have identified an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of people not being aware of how to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the car.

So, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. In case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out asap. And absolutely take care not to turn over the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking spot. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Contact us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can take care of all types of AdBlue 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 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.
