The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant matter to take care of in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel may well lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both circumstances quite quickly.

Keep in mind however that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container laying in the back of your premises containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous private and commercial properties in Derbyshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in an outbuilding, providing we are able to access it, we are able to empty it for you.


Wrong Fuel in Car in SK23 Postcode - New Horwich Misfueling

What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a gloomy Saturday and we were off to help an old lovely lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel dark green Subaru Impreza in New Horwich. She told us that she had left the filling station forecourt and was pulled up on a rural road along the way to visit her godchildren. I got her location plugged straight into the TomTom and arrived inside an hour or so. I turned up at the destination and removed the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she told me, "I have been becoming rather forgetful in my old age and forgot about the vehicle needing diesel since I'd only just bought it a few days back after my previous car, which I'd used for more than twenty five years, finally stopped working". I got the job done and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. Such a pleasant Derbyshire lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car New Horwich

I'm not ever that excited about doing work weekends, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I had just departed the family after eating a lovely lunch prepared by the better half, and I was on the way to deal with a gentleman after he put the incorrect fuel in his uncle's Mazda323. He was only in New Horwich so I was with him before long. Just as I pulled up behind the car and got out he told me "Praise the Almighty! I had my thoughts on other stuff and failed to ascertain I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I caused problems because of running it?" I explained that there shouldn't be problems and also that I would personally get the fuel drained right away for him. It goes without saying that I drained the wrong fuel from the car and put in the appropriate fuel, and then one more content customer had the ability to carry on with their journey without the need for fuss. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and this tends to make earning a living on Sundays in Derbyshire a tiny bit easier to me!

Wrong Fuel Doctor New Horwich - Fuel Rescue New Horwich

A driver from New Horwich with her children in her diesel customised Lexus LS had filled her car with £45 of petrol at the Texaco petrol station. She phoned us sobbing and genuinely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and didn't know what might happen to her car because of it. We assured her that the car should be fine and that she would be up and running very quickly. When we got there she was still upset but as our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she recognised that help was at hand and her car wasn't unfixable. She quickly brightened up and was up and running saying, "I really can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Particularly with the children in the back."

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.
