The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking spot we can reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Northamptonshire we have discovered increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly due to motorists not knowing the right way to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the automobile.

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

Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. In the case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at once. And certainly be careful not to start the vehicle - not even to shift it from the pump. If you have started the car you may almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Any time you get in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination company. Our experts possess the specialised knowledge and experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.


Wrong Fuel in Car in NN6 Postcode - Crick Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a warm Saturday and I was on the way to help an older lady after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel dark green Cadillac XLR in Crick. She told us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and stranded along a country lane on route to pay a visit to her family. I got the location plugged into the TomTom and was on-scene within 60 minutes. I got to the stricken lady and extracted the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing the drain she explained, "I'm getting relatively absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel as I'd only just acquired it a short while ago when my other one, which I'd used for about thirty years, finally stopped working". I got the drain completed and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. What a pleasant Northamptonshire woman!

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.
