The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Hampshire we have found a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure how to to make use of (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

Because the product is primarily ionised water, it's just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In the case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained immediately. And definitely do not crank the motor - not even to shift it to a parking bay. In the event that you have started the car you will likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Phone us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to correct all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.


Wrong Fuel in Car in SO41 Postcode - St Austins Misfueling

Just had a great night's sleep! 7:00 am on a sunny Sunday and we were on the way to assist an older lovely lady after she had put petrol in her diesel spotless Audi Q7 in St Austins. I'd been advised she drove away from the petrol station and was pulled up along a country lane along the way to see her godchildren. I plugged her location straight into the TomTom and was with her inside an hour. I arrived at the car and drained the contaminated fuel out of the car. Whilst I was doing it she told me, "Now I'm getting somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the car using diesel seeing that I had only bought it a short while back when my former one, which I had for more than 30 years, eventually died on me". I got the job done and she offered me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a precious Hampshire woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car St Austins

Now I'm not overly excited about working on weekends, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I'd only just left the family after a fantastic dinner made for me by the missus, and I was en route to assist a gentleman who put the incorrect petrol in his mate's Honda Ridgeline. He was located in St Austins thus I was on scene quickly. As I drove up at the vehicle and started work he told me "Praise the Lord! I foolishly had my thoughts on other considerations and didn't grasp that I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought about any harm because of starting it?" I determined there should not be problems and that I would personally get the contaminated fuel drained as soon as possible. It goes without saying that I got the fuel drained from the car and filled it with the suitable fuel, and another satisfied client could continue on their traveling without the need for fuss. The gentleman couldn't stop thanking me, and that can make earning a living on weekends in Hampshire just a small bit better to me!

This was most definitely an unsociable hour to be awake. It was around dawn and noone was about. It had been quite uneventful up to now, and me and Ryan were loafing about reading several old articles. That was an unusual peaceful moment in Hampshire. It was so quiet that the moment the telephone ultimately rang I jumped with surprise! The voice said: "I have just finished my overnight shift and stupidly put petrol in the burgundy red BMW". I got him to let us know where the car was located and we headed out, arriving in St Austins less than half an hour later. The wrong fuel was removed from the vehicle. He thanked us for getting there so quickly. While we were returning home we spotted two girls at the side of the highway who seemed like they had a flat. Obviously we pulled up to help them change it, to their elation.

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.
