The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Tyne and Wear we are encountering a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by people not being aware of the way to use it (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the car.

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

As the product is primarily ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. Assuming you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it at once. And of course be careful not to start up the motor - not even to move it away from the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you would very likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

In the event that you find yourself in this position don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the practical know-how and working experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

It truly was an unsociable time to be on the road. It was around 2am and noone was about. It had become pretty dead so far, and me and Brian were loafing reading several old magazines. This was an unusual restful time in Tyne and Wear. Actually it was indeed so relaxing that when my mobile eventually rang it made me start! The motorist said: "I only just completed my evening shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in my raspberry red Renault Megane". I got him to tell us where exactly he was located and we hit the road, ending up in Hazlerigg less than half an hour later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car. He said thanks for arriving so rapidly. As we were going back home we saw two young women at the side of the road who seemed to have a puncture. So we pulled up 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.
