The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue Contamination

What you can do if you’ve put AdBlue in a Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that is made out of a mixture of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is definitely harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly any time you run the engine with AdBlue in your diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the AdBlue is going to be pulled into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, causing serious and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

If you get in this situation don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our experts have got the practical competence and experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to access the storage and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

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.
