It was just before seven pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining! Ryan and me were resting there talking over the recent footy rankings, at the ready for the sixth telephone call that day to arrive. Before long we got the call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Texaco petrol station in Bossington and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel well worn Audi S6 hire car. She was rather agitated it seemed, saying "I still cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I'm just so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to worry, plus that things like this sadly do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a protected area and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes away from the office, we were able to reach the lady swiftly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to return to the hotel she was residing at.

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your premises containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and industrial premises in Hampshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in a garage, if we can get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Hampshire we have seen an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of drivers being unsure of how to work with it (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to one another on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it asap. And obviously never start up the car - not even to shift it off the pump. In case you did start the car you will probably need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

If perhaps you find yourself in this position don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our engineers have the specialised expertise and experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no 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.
