The unfortunate thing was rather irritated it seemed, telling me "I still can't believe I've destroyed the car!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Removal

We have been called out to quite a few private and industrial properties in Leicestershire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Leicestershire we are encountering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly stemming from motorists not being totally sure how to to make use of (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the automobile.

Well, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Because the product is predominantly deionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. In the case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And definitely be careful not to turn over the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking place. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would very likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Contact us if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to attend to every type of AdBlue contamination.

A guy had broken down just near a street in Stockerston. His matte black Jeep Wrangler car had stopped functioning and he had no idea what was wrong until he noticed he had put unleaded in his diesel car.

He claimed that he had got absolutely no rest the evening before and that must have been the reason why.

This was most definitely an unsociable time to be up. It was around dawn and hardly anyone was about. It had been quite dead thus far, and me and John were loafing about looking through several old magazines. That was a rare tranquil hour in Leicestershire. Actually it was that peaceful that the moment my mobile ultimately rang it made me start! The customer told me: "I've only just completed my evening shift and incredibly filled petrol in a diesel metallic yellow Chevrolet Camaro by mistake". We instructed him to tell us where exactly the vehicle was and we headed out, getting to him in Stockerston less than an hour later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the motor. He said thank you for coming out so quickly. As we were going back home we saw two young ladies at the edge of the road who seemed to have a flat. Obviously we pulled up to help them change it, to their delight.

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.
