The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Essex we have discovered more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of drivers not understanding how to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And obviously don't turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking place. In the event that you have started the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Whenever you get in this position don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our experts have the specialised expertise and experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.


Wrong Fuel in Car in CB10 Postcode - Wimbish Misfueling

Just had a quality night of sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a bright Sunday and I was on the way to help an old sweetheart who put petrol in her diesel uncle's Lexus IS F in Wimbish. I had been advised she had left the filling station forecourt and was pulled up in a country road on the way to visit her godchildren. I got her location punched in the Satnav and arrived within 60 minutes. I turned up at the destination and drained the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. While I was doing the work she explained, "I am getting somewhat forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel since I'd only just purchased it a week ago after my previous one, which I'd had for more than thirty years, eventually died on me". I got the drain completed and she gave me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a lovely Essex lady!

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.
