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


AdBlue In Diesel

All around Staffordshire we are discovering an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly due to drivers not being totally sure the right way to work with it (please note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to each other on the car.

Well, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?

Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. In case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it at once. And most certainly take care not to switch on the engine - not even to relocate it off the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will in all likelihood need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Should you find yourself in this scenario do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination company. Our experts possess the specialised competence and working experience to have you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

    • 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.
