Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually an important situation to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel will likely contribute to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances fairly expediently.

Bear in mind that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be totally water-logged and unusable.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel container sitting in the rear of your garden full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and industrial premises in Derbyshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a storage shed, providing we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it.

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.
