We have been called out to several private and industrial properties in Gloucestershire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a garage, providing we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Gloucestershire we have encountered progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to to make use of (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car?

Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If in case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out immediately. And most certainly never start up the engine - not even to shift it away from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you would in all probability need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

If you end up in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination business. Our engineers have got the specialised knowledge and experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

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.
