The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir placed at the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial premises in Surrey to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Surrey we have discovered an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a result of motorists not knowing the right way to work with it (remember: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

Since the product is primarily ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out asap. And most definitely don't turn over the motor - not even to move it away from the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you would most likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Should you get in this situation don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination company. Our engineers have the specialised knowledge and working experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

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.
