The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel tank in the rear of your garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and business properties in Gloucestershire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a few drums in a storage shed, provided that we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Gloucestershire we are finding progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to people not being totally sure the way to to make use of (be aware: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?

Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. In the event that you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And of course take care not to start up the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may most likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Whenever you find yourself in this scenario don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the practical competence and working experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

This was the night shift. It was around 3:30 in the morning and hardly anyone was around. It was pretty quiet thus far, and me and Ray were relaxing looking at several old newspapers. This was a rare peaceful hour in Gloucestershire. It was that tranquil that when the telephone inevitably rang it made me start! The voice on the phone explained: "I've just concluded my overnight shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in a diesel husband's Smart Fortwo in error". I asked him to tell us where exactly he was and we left, reaching him in Viney Hill no more than 30 minutes later. The fuel was removed from the car. He thanked us for coming so rapidly. As we were going back to the depot we spotted two girls on the edge of the street who appeared to have a flat. So we pulled over to help them change it, much to their elation.

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.
