The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you can do in case you’ve put AdBlue into a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that is made out of a mixture of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It is certainly devastating to your car's fuel system, specifically any time you started the car with AdBlue in your fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started the AdBlue is going to be squirted into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, causing disastrous and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

If perhaps you get in this position don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination business. Our technicians have the practical knowledge and experience to have you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to an automobile parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

Just had a quality night's sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Saturday and we were on the way to help an elder woman who put the wrong fuel in her diesel husband's Renault in Cockthorpe. I had been advised she drove away from the filling station and stranded in a country lane on route to see her grandchildren. I got her location punched straight into the Satnav and was on-scene within an hour or so. I reached the destination and removed the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing it she said, "I am becoming fairly forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle using diesel seeing that I had only acquired it a week back after my old car, which I owned for more than twenty years, inevitably died". I got the job completed and she gave me a toffee and thanked me for my work. Such a pleasant Norfolk woman!

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 VA 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.
