The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir placed at the back of your garden full of old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and business properties in Cheshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even a few drums in a storage shed, provided that we can get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel is likely to lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances fairly simply.

You should know that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

This was exactly the graveyard shift. It was around sunrise and nobody was stirring. It had become fairly dead so far, and Mark and I were sitting about reading several old newspapers. It was a rare quiet moment in Cheshire. It was indeed so relaxing that the moment my mobile finally rang I leaped! The motorist explained: "I've only just finished my night shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in my uncle's Vauxhall Bedford in error". We told him to inform us just where he was and we hit the road, getting to him in Barnton 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the engine and he said thanks for arriving so quickly. While we were returning to the depot we spotted two girls at the side of the street who appeared to have a puncture. Accordingly we pulled up to change it, much to their elation.

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.
