The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container sitting in the back of the garden full of out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial properties in Buckinghamshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Buckinghamshire we have encountered more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of motorists not understanding how to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Since AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. If in case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely take care not to turn over the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking place. If perhaps you did start the car you will likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Any time you end up in this scenario don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our engineers have the specialised know-how and working experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

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.
