If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near to a car parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Hampshire we are discovering more and more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to drivers not knowing the right way to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the automobile.

Well, what's the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Because the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely do not switch on the engine - not even to move it away from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

If perhaps you find yourself in this scenario do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination business. Our engineers have the technical knowledge and experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.


Wrong Fuel in Car in PO17 Postcode - Tapnage Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a great night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a warm Monday and I was en route to assist an elder lovely lady who put petrol in her diesel apricot Mitsubishi Outlander in Tapnage. She informed us that she had left the filling station and was stranded on a country lane on the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I got her location punched in the Satnav and arrived within an hour. I arrived at the destination and drained the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. As I was working she explained, "I am getting relatively absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle using diesel seeing that I'd only just bought it several days back after my former car, which I used for about twenty five years, finally died". I completed the drain and she gave me a toffee and said thanks. Such a pleasant Hampshire lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Tapnage

Now I'm certainly not that keen on running weekends, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I had just departed the wife and kids after a magnificent roast made for me by the missus, and I was off to sort out a fellow after he had put the incorrect petrol in his mustard yellow Mitsubishi Eclipse. He was somewhere in Tapnage therefore it wasn't a long time before I reached him. As I arrived at the rear of the vehicle and started work he told me "Thank the Almighty! I had my attention on stuff and didn't grasp that I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I inflicted any kind of damage by running it?" I revealed truth be told there probably should not be any kind of damage and also that I'd remove the wrong fuel at once. As expected I removed the wrong fuel from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and another happy motorist could continue his journey without any subsequent hassle. He did not stop saying thanks to me, and that is actually what can make carrying out work on weekends in Hampshire that little bit better for me personally!

A lady from Tapnage with her kids in her diesel classic Mercedes Sprinter 2500 had put £40 of petrol at the BP filling station. She phoned us crying and very upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel and didn't know what could happen to her vehicle . We assured her that all should be okay and that she would be in action soon. When we arrived on scene she was still distressed but as our engineer began work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she saw that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked. She soon enough cheered up and was up and running saying, "I just can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Particularly with the kids in the back."

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.
