WHAT HAPPENS IF I'VE PUT THE WRONG FUEL
Petrol in a Diesel Car
Loud knocking/rattling noise (especially when accelerating). Excessive white/grey smoke. Slower acceleration. Engine stopping completely.
​
Petrol acts as a solvent, reducing the lubrication that diesel provides to the high-pressure fuel pump and other components, causing metal-on-metal friction and damage.
​
Diesel in a Petrol Car
Engine misfiring (sputtering/jerking). Excessive white or black smoke. Engine cutting out or stalling. Failure to restart.
​
Diesel is thicker and less combustible than petrol. It can clog the spark plugs and fuel system, preventing the engine from igniting the fuel correctly.
​
AdBlue In Diesel Tank
Crystallisation and Blockage:
AdBlue does not mix with diesel. Instead, the water content can cause the urea to crystallise (form solid, sludgy deposits) within the fuel tank and fuel lines. These particles quickly clog the fuel filter and can damage or block the highly sensitive, precision components of a modern diesel engine, such as the fuel pump and injectors.
Corrosion:
AdBlue is corrosive to the materials used in the fuel system (metals and seals) that are designed to handle diesel fuel, not a water-based solution. Once circulated, it can rapidly start to corrode pipework and components.
