The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

In Dorset we have noticed a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent thanks to people not being totally sure how to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Since the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly never turn over the car - not even to shift it into a parking place. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would probably need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Whenever you get in this scenario do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the practical know-how and working experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.


Wrong Fuel in Car in SP7 Postcode - West Orchard Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a great night of sleep! It was 7:30 am on a rainy Tuesday and I was on the way to help an elder lady who put petrol in her diesel wife's Peugeot in West Orchard. I'd been informed she had left the petrol station forecourt and stranded along a country road en route to visit her family. I punched her location straight into the Satnav and was with her inside 60 minutes. I turned up at the destination and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. While I was doing the work she said to me, "I am becoming fairly forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle needing diesel as I'd only just got it a few days ago after my previous one, which I had for about thirty years, finally died on me". I completed the drain and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a precious Dorset lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car Dorset - Petrol in Diesel Car West Orchard

We carried out a wrong fuel removal job near a spectacular house in West Orchard a few weeks ago. "I put the wrong fuel in my diesel car and managed to virtually reach home when my car stopped." Our fuel drainer went out, regardless that it was pretty late at night, and did a fuel drain and cleanse on the dark green Chevrolet Cavalier to everyone's satisfaction.

This was certainly an unsociable time to be up. It was about 3 in the morning and noone was about. It was rather uneventful until now, and me and Ryan were relaxing perusing a number of old papers. It was an unusual quiet moment in Dorset. Actually it was indeed that relaxing that the moment the telephone inevitably rang it made me start! The voice explained: "I have only just ended my evening shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in the khaki green Range Rover Classic in error". We told him to tell us where he was and we headed out, reaching him in West Orchard not as much as 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the vehicle. He thanked us profusely for showing up so promptly. As we were coming back to base we noticed two ladies on the edge of the road who looked like they had a flat. So we pulled over to change it, much to their elation.

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 VA 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.
