We're able to get out to fill up your car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your car or truck. They are also able to take care of the usual problems that could go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In West Sussex we are finding a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent caused by motorists not knowing how to work with it (please note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the automobile.

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

Seeing as the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And most certainly never crank the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking area. In the event that you did start the car you would very likely have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Phone us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can fix every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

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.
