The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel container placed in the rear of the garden with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial properties in Cambridgeshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in an outbuilding, providing we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

AdBlue Contamination

In Cambridgeshire we have found a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent due to people being unsure of the right way to use it (be aware: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at once. And most definitely never start up the motor - not even to relocate it away from the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would likely have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

In case you get in this situation don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination company. Our engineers possess the practical knowledge and experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.


Wrong Fuel in Car in CB8 Postcode - Kennett Misfueling

What a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a warm Sunday and we were on the way to help an old sweetheart who put petrol in her diesel elegant Austin Mini Cooper in Kennett. She informed us that she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and pulled up along a rural lane on the way to see her family. I got her location punched in the TomTom and was on-scene in less than an hour or so. I arrived at the vehicle and removed the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. While I was working she said to me, "Now I'm getting rather forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car needing diesel because I'd just bought it several days back right after my other one, which I'd used for about 30 years, eventually died". I finished the job and she presented me a peppermint and said thanks. What a precious Cambridgeshire lady!

I appreciated a terrific day cycling during my afternoon off and felt satisfied with myself the next day as I was on the way to help a new family who were away in Kennett. They'd stopped after inserting petrol into their gorgeous Vauxhall Corsa, and were about half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their position and smiled to myself while I heard to the girl telling her man off for being so confused. "Precisely how could you actually find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this problem goes on frequently in Cambridgeshire and that it's in reality nothing to fret about, but he still had his ear bent. Poor guy. In any case, I drained all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the correct fuel. While they drove away I mouthed goodbye and wondered what my wife would do to me in the event that I made the same error... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Kennett

We got a call from a businessman who had put the wrong fuel in his deep grey Vauxhall Combo in Kennett. He had conked out on the street. "After adding unleaded in my diesel car I didn't realize the predicament till I conked out. You took the wrong fuel from my car and got it running again. I was amazed because of both your call-out time and your prices". Obviously we got there punctually and flushed the engine after draining all of the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank. On arrival the technician said the client was fuming, but was grinning his face off afterwards.

This was an unsociable time to be up. It was roughly 3:30am and nobody was around. It had been fairly uneventful thus far, and Brian and I were loafing looking through a couple of old papers. It was an unusual tranquil hour in Cambridgeshire. It was indeed that quiet that when the telephone eventually rang it made me start! The person on the phone said: "I've only just concluded my overnight shift and stupidly poured petrol in the diesel metallic silver Nissan Murano". I got him to let us know where exactly he was and we headed out, getting to him in Kennett only 30 minutes later. The fuel was cleared from the car. He thanked us profusely for coming out so rapidly. While we were returning home we found two women on the side of the street who appeared to have a flat tyre. So we stopped to help them change it, much to their delight.

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.
