The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to an automobile parking spot we can reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Staffordshire we are finding more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially due to people not understanding the right way to work with it (remember: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

As the product is predominantly deionised water, it's just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out asap. And certainly don't crank the motor - not even to move it away from the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will in all probability need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

In the event that you discover yourself to be in this scenario don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our experts possess the specialised skills and experience to have you back on your way quickly 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.
