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


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Tyne and Wear we are identifying more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially caused by drivers being unsure of the right way to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the car.

So, what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If in case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained asap. And certainly do not crank the car - not even to move it into a parking spot. In cases where you did start the car you will most likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

If you end up in this position do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination company. Our experts have got the specialised skills and experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

What a great night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a bright Saturday and we were en route to assist an old lovely lady who put contaminated fuel in her diesel khaki green Audi S5 in Old Fold. I had been advised she drove away from the petrol station and was broken down on a country lane along the way to see her family. I got her location plugged straight into the TomTom and was with her inside an hour. I reached the stricken lady and extracted the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she told me, "I have been becoming relatively forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car working with diesel since I'd just acquired it several days ago when my other one, which I had used for about twenty years, finally broke down". I got the job done and she presented me a Murray mint and said thanks. What a lovely Tyne and Wear woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car Tyne and Wear - Petrol in Diesel Car Old Fold

I am not necessarily very hot for carrying out work on weekends, and a week ago was the same. I had just departed the family following a wonderful dinner made for us by the wife, and I was en route to help a guy after he had put the wrong fuel in his company's Land Rover Range Rover Classic. He was somewhere in Old Fold thus it wasn't long before I reached him. As I pulled up at the vehicle and stepped out he explained to me "Thank the Almighty! I foolishly had my mind on other considerations and did not ascertain I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I brought about some damage as a result of running it?" I explained that truth be told there should not be any harm and that I would personally get the contaminated fuel drained as soon as possible. It goes without saying that I got the fuel drained from the car and filled up with some suitable fuel, and thus another content customer was able to carry on with his traveling with no difficulty. The man couldn't stop thanking me, and this is exactly what tends to make carrying out work on weekends in Tyne and Wear a little less painful to me!

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.
