Eventually we got a phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Upper Astley and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel precious Renault Kangoo lease car by mistake. She was somewhat irritated it seemed, telling me "I just can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!"

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Shropshire we are noticing progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly thanks to motorists not being aware of the way to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And of course be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In the event that you did start the car you may in all probability have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

If you discover yourself to be in this position do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our engineers have got the practical know-how and working experience to get you back on your way promptly 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.
