It was after 10 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! James and I were seated commenting on the weekend's sports, prepared for the 6th job to arrive. Before long we received the call from a woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Spurlands End and put petrol in her diesel white Honda Civic GX rental car. The unfortunate thing was rather distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe I've messed up the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to fret, also that things like this often happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a secure area and, seeing as it was just a few minutes from us, we could reach the woman fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off calm and a lot less anxious. A misfuel correction in Buckinghamshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel tank at the back of your premises containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and business premises in Buckinghamshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even some containers in a shed, provided that we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious condition to address in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol is likely to contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both situations quite quickly.

Bear in mind that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

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.
