The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

How to handle it in case you’ve put AdBlue into your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that is made from a mix of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). AdBlue can be damaging to your automobile's fuel system, particularly in cases where you started the car with AdBlue in the tank. The moment the engine has been started the AdBlue will be squirted into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, resulting in devastating and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

Any time you end up in this scenario don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our experts have got the technical skills and working experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Wanstrow

I am not ever very inclined to doing the job on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I'd only just left home after having a superb lunch made by the missus, and I was off to assist a fellow after he had filled the wrong petrol in his partner's Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG. He was located in Wanstrow and so I was there rapidly. Just as I drove up behind the vehicle and started work he said to me "Thank God! I had my attention on other considerations and did not ascertain I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I created some problems by simply starting it?" I said that there probably should not be any kind of problems and that I would personally get the wrong fuel drained as soon as possible for him. As expected I got the wrong fuel drained from the vehicle and filled up with some appropriate fuel, and then one more satisfied customer was able to continue on their ride without bother. He did not stop thanking me, and this is what helps make earning a living on weekends in Somerset that tiny bit better for me!

A woman from Wanstrow with her little ones in her diesel expensive Alfa Romeo164 had filled her vehicle with £20 of petrol at the Sainsburys service station. She phoned us crying and really worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel previously and did not know what could happen to her car in doing so. We told her that everything should be fine and that she would be ready to go very quickly. When we got there she was still upset but as our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she noticed that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I really can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Especially with the children 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 VA 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.
