The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel reservoir lying at the rear of your garden full of out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and industrial properties in Hampshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some containers in a garage, as long as we can get to it, we can drain it for you.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Hampshire we have encountered a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a result of motorists not knowing how to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to each other on the car.

Now, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at once. And definitely do not switch on the car - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In case you did start the car you would in all probability have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Should you end up in this situation don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our experts have the technical expertise and experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

It truly was the graveyard shift. It was close to sunrise and almost noone was stirring. It had become rather uneventful until now, and me and Mark were sitting about reading through a couple of old articles. That was an unusual peaceful moment in Hampshire. It was so calm that the moment the telephone ultimately rang it made me start! The voice explained: "I finished my evening shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in a apricot Renault Laguna". I told him to let us know exactly where he was and we hit the road, reaching him in Wildern less than an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the motor and he thanked us for coming out so fast. While we were returning home we noticed two ladies at the edge of the highway who seemed like they had a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled up to 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.
