It was about six pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were relaxing discussing the rugby rankings, prepared for the seventh job that day to come in. Eventually we got the phone call from a woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Shell filling station in South Side and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel teal Ford Focus lease car by mistake. She was rather distressed apparently, crying "I still cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that such things unfortunately happen.

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In your Fuel

In County Durham we have seen increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part due to drivers not understanding the right way to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it immediately. And most definitely be careful not to start the car - not even to relocate it off the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Give us a call if you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to fix every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

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.
