It was just before 6 pm on a Thursday and even though we were assured a dry day, it had not ceased raining! James and I were sitting there commenting on the weekend's tennis, waiting around for the 8th job for the day to arrive. Finally we received the phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Crowle and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel wife's Ford Focus ST lease car in error. She was quite irritated it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe I have destroyed the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to fret, and that these things unfortunately do happen.

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

All around Lincolnshire we have noticed an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to people not knowing how to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to each other on the automobile.

So, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And of course never crank the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking place. Assuming you have started the car you may most likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Contact us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily fix all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

What a great night of sleep! 7:30 am on a gloomy Saturday and I was on the way to assist an old woman who put contaminated fuel in her diesel beloved Honda Civic in Crowle.

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.
