The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!

We've been called out to several domestic and commercial premises in Oxfordshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a garage, assuming that we can access it, we can drain it for you.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Oxfordshire we have discovered an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part thanks to drivers being unsure of the right way to to make use of (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. In case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out asap. And obviously don't start up the car - not even to move it to a parking spot. In the event that you did start the car you would in all probability need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Should you get in this situation don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our technicians have the specialised competence and experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Wrong Fuel Assist Sutton Courtenay - Wrong Fuel in Car Sutton Courtenay

I had appreciated a fantastic evening cycling on my off day and was feeling satisfied the following morning as I was en route to aid a young family who were holidaying in Sutton Courtenay. They'd stopped after inserting petrol in their wife's Audi Quattro, and the car was roughly an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and smirked to myself while I listened to the girl chastising her partner for turning out to be so foolish. "Precisely how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I wanted to clarify that this situation occurs on daily basis in Oxfordshire and that it is nothing to get worried about, even so he still got his ear bent. I felt genuine sympathy for the guy. Anyways, I extracted all the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some right fuel. Watching them drive away I waved bon voyage and pondered on what her indoors would do to me if I did the exact same thing... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!

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.
