The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel tank lying at the rear of your garden with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and industrial premises in Nottinghamshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even several drums in a shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Nottinghamshire we have seen increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of people not being aware of the right way to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Since the product is mainly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. In the event that you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And obviously be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it from the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you may almost certainly need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Phone us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to fix different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.


Wrong Fuel in Car in NG22 Postcode - Ompton Misfueling

What a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 on a bright Wednesday and we were on the way to assist an elder lady after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel green Vauxhall Signum in Ompton. She told us that she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and was pulled up on a rural road on route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got the location punched into the TomTom and arrived in less than an hour or so. I got to the location and drained the contaminated fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing the work she told me, "Now I'm getting relatively absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel seeing that I'd only acquired it several days back after my previous one, which I had used for about 25 years, eventually broke down". I finished the drain and she gave me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. What a delightful Nottinghamshire lady!

We are properly licenced and insured and thus you know that the car is in secure hands. Moreover, our fuel drainers are completely trained and skilled in working with the majority of makes and models.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Ompton

Now I am not actually that excited about doing work weekends, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I had just left home after having a fantastic roast prepared for us by the missus, and I was on the way to help a fellow who filled the wrong petrol in his buff Vauxhall Zafira. He was only in Ompton hence it wouldn't be a long time before I arrived with him. Just as I pulled up at the car and got out he explained to me "Praise God! I foolishly had my attention on other stuff and didn't grasp that I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I created any harm by driving it?" I revealed that there shouldn't be damage and that I would personally drain the wrong fuel as quickly as possible for him. Naturally I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and put in the suitable fuel, and thus another pleased motorist was able to carry on with his trip without bother. He could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what helps make earning a living on weekends in Nottinghamshire just that little bit easier for me!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Ompton - Fuel Rescue Ompton

A young lady from Ompton with her little ones in her diesel clean white Audi S4 had filled her vehicle with £45 of petrol at the Texaco station. She contacted us weeping and extremely distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and did not know what would happen to her car in doing so. We reassured her that the car should be ok and that she would be back in action in no time at all. When we got there she was visible upset but while our technician got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she noticed that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She soon cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I really can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Especially with the youngsters on board."

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.
