The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container in the rear of the garden full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business properties in Gloucestershire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in a storage shed, as long as we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Gloucestershire we are discovering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of people not being aware of how to work with it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Since AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. In the event that you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at once. And certainly take care not to turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it from the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

In the event that you end up in this predicament don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our engineers have the technical competence and experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

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.
