It was about eight pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a dry day, it hadn't given up on raining! Ray and I were sitting talking over the recent golf rankings, ready for the next job for the day to arrive. Inevitably we had the phone call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Lound and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel bright yellow Ford Aspire lease car in error. She was somewhat irritated it seemed, saying "I simply cannot believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to worry, and also that such things regrettably can happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a secure spot and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance away from the office, we could find the woman rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she could go home to the hotel she was lodging in.

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Nottinghamshire we are discovering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially caused by drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And absolutely take care not to switch on the motor - not even to relocate it away from the pump. Assuming you have started the car you would likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

In case you end up in this situation don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination company. Our technicians possess the specialised skills and experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

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.
