The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Leicestershire we have found an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by motorists not knowing how to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If you find you put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it immediately. And most certainly never start up the motor - not even to shift it from the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Should you get in this situation don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination company. Our experts possess the technical knowledge and experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to an automobile parking spot we can reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Sketchley

It's no fun being stuck in a car contaminated with the wrong fuel halfway down the street. Our most recent customer who put the incorrect fuel in her car (metallic silver Land Rover) in Sketchley had literally this type of crisis: "Unfortunately I accidentally put unleaded in my diesel car . I was so bothered about contaminating my fuel that I was in tears. Fortunately I didn't need to worry as you were fantastic in sorting the problem out."

Wrong Fuel Doctor Sketchley - Fuel Rescue Sketchley

A woman from Sketchley with her kids in her diesel raspberry red Audi Cabriolet had filled her vehicle with £40 of petrol at the Sainsburys service station. She contacted us sobbing and genuinely distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel and didn't know what could happen to her vehicle because of it. We told her that everything would be alright and that she would be back on the road very quickly. When we got there she was still distressed but as our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she discovered that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She quickly cheered up and was on her way saying, "I simply can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Specifically with the children 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.
