The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel container at the rear of your garden with old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in Buckinghamshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some drums in an outbuilding, if we can access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank will often produce idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both situations quite easily.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be totally wet and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel Assist Lee Gate - Wrong Fuel in Car Lee Gate

I'd had a perfect day cycling on the weekend and felt contented with myself the following morning as I headed out to assist a young family who were on vacation in Lee Gate. They broken down after adding petrol in their apple green BMW 645, and the car was around half an hour away. I turned up at their position and laughed to myself while I heard to the lady telling off her man for being so confused. "Just how could you possibly be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to tell her that this problem goes on constantly in Buckinghamshire and that it's nothing at all to be anxious about, however he yet still had an earful by his wife. Poor guy. In any case, I extracted all of the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the proper fuel. As they drove away I mouthed so long and pondered on what my missus would tell me if perhaps I did the same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!

"After inserting petrol in my diesel car I didn't notice the issue till the time we stopped working. You took the wrong fuel from my car and got it working . I was amazed because of both how quick you were and your charges". Of course we got there rapidly and flushed the engine after flushing all the wrong fuel from the diesel tank.

A young lady working in Lee Gate called us after she managed to get her wrong fueled car to work. She had filled unleaded in her diesel dad's Peugeot 505 and, like many before her, believed that she could just fill up the vehicle with diesel and it would run okay. The vehicle was spluttering and then it stopped when she got to the entrance of her work. We promptly went to work on the fuel drain after she called and had it sorted in an hour while she was working.

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.
