We will get out to re-fill your automobile any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill up your automobile. They will deal with the usual troubles which might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Oxfordshire we have seen a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly stemming from people being unsure of how to work with it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?

As the product is predominantly deionised water, it's just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely be careful not to turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. Assuming you have started the car you would in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Contact us if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to take care of every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

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.
