The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car parking spot we are able to access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Berkshire we have discovered increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of people not understanding how to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it immediately. And definitely don't start up the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. In the event that you have started the car you will in all probability need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

If perhaps you discover yourself to be in this situation do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our engineers have the practical knowledge and experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

They'd conked out after adding petrol into their expensive Hyundai Elantra, and the car was approximately half an hour's travel away. I showed up at their car and smiled to myself while I heard to the gal telling her partner off for being so confused. "Exactly how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I tried to tell her that this problem goes on everyday in Berkshire and that it's nothing at all to get worried about, nevertheless he still got an earful. Unlucky lad. At any rate, I extracted the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some right fuel.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Nodmore

Now I'm not necessarily too enthusiastic about doing the job Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I'd only just come away from the wife and kids after having a tasty lunch made for me by the better half, and I was en route to deal with a guy after he filled the wrong fuel in his bright white Toyota Highlander Hybrid. He was located in Nodmore and so I was there rapidly. As I pulled up at the car and started work he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I stupidly had my mind on other stuff and did not realise I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I inflicted any problems through starting it?" I explained that generally there probably should not be problems and also that I'd remove the fuel right away for him. Needless to say I got the fuel drained from the car and filled it with the correct fuel, and thus another content client had the ability to carry on with their traveling without any subsequent bother. The guy did not stop thanking me, and that is actually what can make earning a living on Sundays in Berkshire just a little bit less painful in my opinion!

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.
