The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to an automobile parking spot we can reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have successfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Essex we have identified an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of motorists not understanding how to to make use of (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to one another on the car.

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

As the product is predominantly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If perhaps you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained immediately. And of course be careful not to switch on the car - not even to move it from the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may very likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

In case you discover yourself to be in this situation do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our experts have got the practical competence and experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Goldhanger

I am not ever overly excited about working on Sundays, and last week was no different. I had only just departed the wife and kids following a lovely dinner cooked for us by the missus, and I was on my way to assist a man after he had filled the wrong fuel in his brand new Skoda Citigo. He was situated in Goldhanger so it wouldn't be a long time before I reached him. As I pulled up at the car and got busy draining he explained to me "Thank God! I had my concentration on stuff and did not perceive I've put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I inflicted harm by simply running it?" I explained truth be told there probably should not be any harm and that I would personally get the fuel drained at once. It goes without saying that I removed the contaminated fuel from the car and put in the correct fuel, and so yet another content client could continue his traveling without bother. The man couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what tends to make earning a living on weekends in Essex just a tiny bit better for me!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Goldhanger - Fuel Rescue Goldhanger

A woman from Goldhanger with a full car of youngsters in her diesel work's Volvo had filled her vehicle with £20 of petrol at the Shell petrol station. She phoned us sobbing and extremely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel before and did not know what could happen to her vehicle . We assured her that everything would be alright and that she would be in action in no time at all. When we arrived on scene she was still upset but as our technician got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't ruined. She soon enough brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I simply can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Especially with the little ones on board."

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.

Standard Misfueling Warning signs:

Here's a list of very common wrong fuel symptoms:

  • Decrease in vehicle power
  • Engine dying, stuttering or even hiccuping
  • Issues starting the motor
  • Excessive smoke
