The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir laying at the rear of your garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business premises in Buckinghamshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several drums in an outbuilding, if we can access it, we are able to empty it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant issue to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can easily result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not remedied correctly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both circumstances very quickly.

Bear in mind however that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

I am not so keen on working weekends, and a week ago was the same. I'd only just come away from the wife and kids filled with a superb roast prepared for me by the wife, and I was en route to deal with a gentleman after he had put the incorrect fuel in his light blue Fiat Panda. He was only in Ley Hill thus it wasn't long before I reached him. Just as I arrived behind the car and started work he explained to me "Thank the Almighty! I had my attention on stuff and did not ascertain I'd put diesel in my petrol car. Have I brought about problems because of starting it?" I said that generally there probably should not be any harm and that I would remove the contaminated fuel as quickly as possible for him. Naturally I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and filled it with some appropriate fuel, and then one more satisfied motorist could continue his trip without the hassle. He could not stop thanking me, and this is what can make carrying out work on Sundays in Buckinghamshire that tiny bit less painful in my opinion!

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.
