The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

What to do in case you may have put AdBlue in your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that is made of a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It is definitely damaging to your automobile's fuel system, specifically if you have had the engine running with AdBlue in your fuel tank. Once the engine has been started the AdBlue will likely be dragged into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, causing disastrous and expensive problems to your automobile's fuel system.

In the event that you end up in this predicament don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination company. Our technicians have got the specialised know-how and experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Hanley Swan

I am certainly not overly interested in working Sundays, and the other day was no different. I'd just come away from the wife and kids after a lovely dinner made for us by the missus, and I was off to assist a guy after he had filled the incorrect petrol in his canary yellow Ford Club Wagon. He was stationed in Hanley Swan and so it wasn't a long time before I arrived with him. Just as I drove up at the car and started work he told me "Praise the Lord! I incredibly had my concentration on something else and didn't perceive I had put diesel in my petrol car. Have I created any kind of damage by running it?" I stated that generally there shouldn't be any kind of harm and that also I would drain the wrong fuel right away for him. As expected I removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and filled it with the correct fuel, and so yet another pleased motorist could continue on their journey without fuss. The guy could not stop thanking me, and this tends to make operating on Sundays in Worcestershire that little easier for me personally!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Hanley Swan - Fuel Rescue Hanley Swan

A woman from Hanley Swan with a full car of kids in her diesel father's Kia Spectra5 had put £42 of petrol at the Co Op petrol station. She phoned us sobbing and very worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel before and didn't know what might happen to her vehicle because of it. We assured her that all would be fine and that she would be on the road quickly. When we arrived on scene she was still upset but as our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she recognised that help was at hand and her car wasn't unfixable. She quickly cheered up and was on her way saying, "I simply can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Specifically with the little ones 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 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.
