Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel container lying at the back of your premises containing unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial premises in East Sussex for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several drums in an outbuilding, if we can reach it, we could certainly drain it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important matter to address in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can easily lead to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both situations fairly quickly.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will be thoroughly wet and unusable.

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.
