The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container placed in the rear of the garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in Hampshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Hampshire we are identifying a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent a result of people not being aware of the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to one another on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If in case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And obviously be careful not to start up the engine - not even to relocate it from the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would probably have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Phone us if it turns out you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to handle different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.


Wrong Fuel in Car in PO9 Postcode - Langstone Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a good night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a warm Saturday and I was en route to help an old woman who had put petrol in her diesel rust red Jaguar XK Series in Langstone. She informed us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and was stranded in a country road on the way to pay a visit to her family. I popped her location into the TomTom and got there within 60 minutes. I reached the vehicle and removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle. As I was doing the drain she said, "I am getting relatively absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the car needing diesel seeing that I'd just acquired it a couple of days ago right after my old one, which I had owned for in excess of thirty years, eventually broke down". I finished the job and she presented me a Murray mint and said thank you. Such a pleasant Hampshire woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Langstone

We completed a wrong fuel removal job near a spectacular house in Langstone a few weeks ago. "I had put the wrong fuel in my diesel car and managed to almost arrive at home when my car broke down." Our fuel drainer went out, even though it was fairly late at night, and completed a standard fuel drain and purge on the expensive Cadillac Eldorado .

Wrong Fuel Doctor Langstone - Fuel Rescue Langstone

A woman living in Langstone called us after she tried to get her wrong fueled car to the office. She had put the wrong fuel in her diesel modern Renault Kangoo and, like many people prior to her, imagined that she could just top up the tank with diesel and it'd run alright. The engine was spluttering and then it cut out when she got to the entrance of her work. We soon went to work on the fuel drain following her call and had it sorted in an hour whilst she was working. She came outside afterwards and thanked us saying, "I'm very relieved you repaired my car."

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.
