It was around 8 pm on a Thursday and although we were promised a dry night, it hadn't given up on raining!

Finally we received the phone call from a girl on a business trip who had gone to the Texaco petrol garage in Hamble-le-Rice and put the wrong fuel in a diesel classic Peugeot 405 rental car in error. The unfortunate thing was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I still cannot believe that I have destroyed the car!

Boat Fuel Drains

So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to an automobile parking bay we are able to access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel.

AdBlue Contamination

What to do in the event that you may have put AdBlue in your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical made of a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue tends to be damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly in cases where you have had the engine running with AdBlue in the diesel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will undoubtedly be dragged into your fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, leading to catastrophic and costly damage to your automobile's fuel system.

Any time you discover yourself to be in this position do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our engineers have got the specialised competence and experience to have you back on the road rapidly 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.
