The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol is going to cause idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both situations quite simply.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir laying at the back of the garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in Buckinghamshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it.

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.
