Understanding the damage helps explain why immediate professional service is critical
Diesel is thicker than gasoline, and the more viscous fuel can clog and damage a gas engine's injection system and other components.
Depending on how much diesel entered the gas tank and whether the engine was started, the diesel will clog the fuel injectors and spark plugs. The vehicle may misfire, stall, or not start at all.
Diesel, with its thicker consistency, can potentially gum up fuel lines, filters, and pumps if the engine runs even for a short period.
Unburned diesel can reach the exhaust system and damage the catalytic converter, the component responsible for reducing emissions.
This is why immediate professional decontamination is essential.

📞 Call for Service NowBetween January 7-8, 2026, diesel fuel was mistakenly mixed with regular unleaded gasoline at the HF Sinclair terminal in Henderson, Colorado. This contaminated fuel was then distributed to multiple gas stations across the Denver metro area.
The affected stations include King Soopers, Costco, and Murphy Express locations primarily in Aurora, Broomfield, Parker, Sheridan, and surrounding areas. Drivers who purchased "regular unleaded" gasoline actually received a diesel-contaminated mixture.
According to The Denver Post, Colorado's Division of Oil and Public Safety confirmed the contamination and is actively investigating the incident. Impacted drivers can expect repair costs around $1,000 plus towing expenses.
This is not your fault. The contamination occurred at the distribution level, and affected drivers had no way of knowing they were receiving contaminated fuel. AutoLab Englewood is here to help get your vehicle back to normal operation quickly and professionally.
