We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Hampshire we have encountered a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of people not knowing the way to use it (important: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the car.

Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. In the case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at once. And of course be careful not to crank the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking place. In cases where you did start the car you would probably have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Call us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can attend to all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.


Wrong Fuel in Car in GU17 Postcode - Blackwater Misfueling

What a good night of sleep! 7:00 am on a bright Tuesday and we were en route to help an old lady who put the wrong fuel in her diesel cobalt blue Nissan JUKE in Blackwater. I had been told she had driven away from the petrol station and stranded in a country lane along the way to see her family. I popped her location straight into the TomTom and was with her in less than 60 minutes. I arrived at the car and extracted the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. While I was doing the drain she said to me, "Now I'm becoming fairly absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel since I had only got it a week ago after my former one, which I used for more than twenty years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I finished the job and she presented me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. What a pleasant Hampshire lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Blackwater

I am not actually too interested in carrying out work on Sundays, and the other day was no different. I'd just come away from the wife and kids after eating a fantastic Sunday roast cooked for me by the wife, and I was off to sort out a gentleman who put the wrong petrol in his wife's Volvo940. He was situated in Blackwater hence it wouldn't be a long time before I arrived with him. Just as I arrived at the vehicle and started work he explained to me "Thank the Lord! I incredibly had my mind on other things and didn't perceive I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I inflicted damage by running it?" I said generally there probably should not be any kind of harm and that I'd personally drain the fuel right away. It goes without saying that I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some suitable fuel, and so one more content motorist could continue on their ride without any hassle. The gentleman could not stop thanking me, and that helps make carrying out work on weekends in Hampshire that tiny bit less painful to me!

This was certainly what we call an unsociable time to be awake. It was around 2 in the morning and almost noone was about. It was pretty dead up to now, and me and Brian were relaxing browsing several old magazines. This was an unusual calm hour in Hampshire. Actually it was in fact so calm that the moment the telephone finally rang I leaped with surprise! The motorist stated: "I have just ended my overnight shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in my faithful Audi R8". I got him to tell us just where he was and we headed out, ending up in Blackwater only an hour later. The fuel was removed from the vehicle. He thanked us for getting there so rapidly. As we were coming back to the office we saw two young women at the side of the street who looked like they had a puncture. Accordingly we pulled up and helped 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.
