It was before 10 pm on a Monday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Paul and I were relaxing discussing the recent golf rankings, waiting for the sixth job of the day to come in. Inevitably we received a phone call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling garage in Dimple and put petrol in a diesel spotless Cadillac STS-V lease car. The poor thing was fairly distressed it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to worry, also that such things unfortunately often happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure position and, seeing as it was only a few minutes from the office, we were able to arrive at the woman without delay. The bad fuel was taken out so she could go home to the hotel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got very drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive off calm and not so stressed. Another fuel drain in Derbyshire well done in my books!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to handle in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol may well lead to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both cases pretty easily.

You should know though that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir placed at the back of your premises containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Derbyshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a garage, as long as we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Ahhh, that was a good night's sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a gloomy Bank Holiday Monday and we were en route to assist an elder lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel friend's Audi S8 in Dimple. I'd been informed she had left the filling station and stranded in a country lane on the way to visit her family. I got the location punched into the TomTom and arrived within an hour. I reached the car and extracted the wrong fuel from the car. While I was doing the drain she told me, "I'm getting relatively absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel seeing that I had only just bought it a short while ago when my old one, which I'd used for in excess of twenty years, finally died on me". I completed the drain and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a lovely Derbyshire lady!

This really was the graveyard shift. It was around sunrise and nobody was around. It had been quite dead so far, and John and I were sitting browsing several old magazines. This was an unusual peaceful moment in Derbyshire. It was indeed that tranquil that when my mobile inevitably rang I leaped! The customer on the phone said: "I finished my night shift and stupidly filled petrol in a new-shape Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 by mistake". I asked him to inform us where exactly he was and we headed out, getting to him in Dimple no more than half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was removed from the motor. He thanked us for showing up so quickly. As we were going back to base we saw two women on the edge of the road who appeared to have a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled up to help them change it, much to their delight.

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.
