It was just before 8 pm on a Wednesday and although we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Mark and I were resting there talking over the recent tennis, waiting around for the 6th telephone call for the day to arrive. Before long we got a call from a woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Texaco filling station in Wolferton and put the wrong fuel in her diesel grass green Vauxhall Zafira rental car by mistake. She was rather agitated apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to fret, plus that these things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a safe space and, because it was no more than a short distance away from the office, we could arrive at the lady right away. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she could once again go back to the hotel she was staying at.

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Diesel

All over Norfolk we have discovered an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially a result of people being unsure of how to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to one another on the car.

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

Since the product is primarily ionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained right away. And of course do not start the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. Assuming you did start the vehicle you will in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Contact us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to fix all types of AdBlue 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.
