The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a car parking spot we are able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Buckinghamshire we are identifying more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly a result of motorists not being totally sure the way to work with it (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. In case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And most definitely don't switch on the motor - not even to relocate it off of the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Contact us in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to correct all types of AdBlue liquid 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.
