The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Herefordshire we are finding a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of motorists not understanding the right way to to make use of (important: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And certainly be careful not to turn over the motor - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Should you get in this position don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the practical know-how and working experience to have you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.


Wrong Fuel in Car in HR9 Postcode - Hildersley Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a good night's sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Wednesday and we were on my way to assist an older lady who put petrol in her diesel dark red Cadillac DeVille in Hildersley. She told us that she had driven away from the filling station and was pulled up along a backwater lane en route to see her family. I got the location plugged straight into the TomTom and was on-scene inside an hour. I got to the destination and drained the wrong fuel out of the car. While I was doing the drain she told me, "Now I'm getting relatively forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car using diesel since I had only just got it a short while back right after my former one, which I had had for in excess of 25 years, finally gave up the ghost". I finished the job and she presented me a toffee and said thanks a lot. Such a lovely Herefordshire lady!

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.
