We're only a phone call away.

It was before five pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were seated there discussing the weekend's rugby, waiting for the sixth call to come in. In due time we got a call from a girl on a company excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Toddington and put petrol in her diesel partner's Mercedes-Benz E-Class lease car in error. She was rather irritated apparently, saying "I cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that such things do happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a safe area and, as it was only a few minutes away from the office, we were able to arrive at the lady without delay. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got fairly soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive home calm and less anxious. One more job in West Sussex well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

All around West Sussex we are encountering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of people not being aware of the way to use it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel car?

Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If in case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And definitely be careful not to start up the car - not even to maneuver it from the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Give us a call if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to correct 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.
