The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!

We're able to help to re-fill the car any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill up your car. They will be able to deal with any of the most common troubles which can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Buckinghamshire we are encountering an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly caused by drivers not being totally sure the way to use it (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If in case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it right away. And certainly never crank the engine - not even to shift it away from the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Call us if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will correct all kinds 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.
