The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel container laying in the back of the garden containing aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in Hampshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Hampshire we have identified an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly stemming from people not being aware of how to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to one another on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Because the product is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. In case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And certainly take care not to start the car - not even to move it from the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you will most likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

In the event that you find yourself in this situation don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination business. Our experts possess the specialised competence and experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

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.
