The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Essex we have discovered increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of drivers not understanding how to to make use of (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Since the product is primarily ionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. If you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it asap. And most definitely be careful not to start up the car - not even to move it off the pump. If you have started the car you may in all probability need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

In the event that you discover yourself to be in this situation don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination business. Our experts possess the specialised competence and working experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no 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.
