It was before eight pm on a Monday and even though we were promised a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and I were resting going over the golf, prepared for the 8th call that day to come in. Before long we got the phone call from a young lady on a company excursion who had pulled into the Shell petrol station in Longridge and put petrol in a diesel raspberry red Renault Master rental in error. The unfortunate lady was very affected it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, also that such things regrettably happen.

The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Staffordshire we have encountered increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (be aware: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to each other on the car.

Well, what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If in case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained asap. And obviously don't turn over the car - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may very likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Call us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will take care of every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

This was certainly an unsociable hour to be up. It was roughly 2 in the morning and hardly anyone was about. It was fairly quiet so far, and me and Paul were relaxing perusing a few old newspapers. This was an uncommon quiet moment in Staffordshire. It was indeed so relaxing that the instant the telephone ultimately rang it made me start! The person on the phone told me: "I've ended my overnight shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in the diesel wife's BMW 3 Series by mistake". We told him to inform us where he was and we set off, ending up in Longridge not as much as an hour or so later. The fuel was cleaned from the car. He said thanks for getting there so promptly. As we were going back to the depot we noticed two young women on the side of the road who seemed to have a flat. Obviously we pulled over to help them change it, much to their delight.

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.
