The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In your Fuel

What you should do in the event that you may have poured AdBlue into your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a solution composed of a mix of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue can be devastating to your car's fuel system, particularly in cases where you run the engine with AdBlue in the diesel fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started the AdBlue is going to be dragged into your fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, leading to catastrophic and expensive damage to your car's fuel system.

Should you find yourself in this predicament don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the specialised know-how and experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Tales from our own Radford team:

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Radford

I'm not overly enthusiastic about working Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I had only just departed the family following a lovely Sunday roast made by the wife, and I was off to assist a gentleman because he filled the incorrect petrol in his brother's Mitsubishi Outlander. He was located in Radford hence I was there almost immediately. As I drove up right behind the car and stepped out he explained to me "Thank the Almighty! I had my attention on other stuff and did not grasp that I had put diesel in my petrol car. Have I created any kind of damage as a result of driving it?" I stated generally there should not be any kind of harm and also I would personally remove the fuel at once. Naturally I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some appropriate fuel, and so another satisfied motorist had the ability to continue his traveling without bother. The man could not stop saying thanks to me, and that can make operating on weekends in Oxfordshire that tiny bit easier for me personally!

A motorist employed in Radford called us after she had managed to get her misfueled car to the office. She had put the wrong fuel in her diesel dark blue Toyota Corolla and, like countless before her, imagined that she would be able to basically fill up the vehicle with diesel and it'd be okay. The engine was chugging and then it cut out when she arrived at the entrance of her office. We quickly went to work on the fuel drain after she called and had it resolved in one hour whilst she was working. She came out soon after and thanked us stating, "I'm very glad you sorted my vehicle."

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.
