It was before five pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a dry evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Brian and me were sitting discussing the recent tennis, ready for the 8th telephone call for the day to arrive. Before long we got a call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had gone to the Shell petrol garage in Pollington and put petrol in a diesel brother's BMW 6 Series rental car by mistake. She was pretty irritated by the sounds of it, saying "I just can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that these things regrettably can happen.

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue Contamination

In East Riding of Yorkshire we are finding progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a result of people not understanding the way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to one another on the car.

Now, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

As the product is primarily ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If in case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it immediately. And definitely do not switch on the engine - not even to shift it to a parking bay. In the instance that you have started the car you will probably need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Contact us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily attend to every type 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 VAT 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.
