The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

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

Water or AdBlue in the fuel can easily produce idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both situations very expediently.

Take note that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel container sitting in the rear of your garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several domestic and business properties in Essex to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a garage, providing we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it.

Wrong Fuel Assist Hempstead - Wrong Fuel in Car Hempstead

I'd had a great afternoon golfing during my off day and was feeling delighted with myself the next working day as I set out to aid a young family vacationing in Hempstead. They had pulled over after putting petrol in their dark red Jaguar, and they were about half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their position and smiled to myself while I listened to the girl telling off her spouse for actually being so daft. "Precisely how could you conceivably be able to fill the vehicle up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to tell her that this kind of thing goes on everyday in Essex and that it's truly nothing at all to fret about, and yet he yet still had an earful. I felt sorry for the chap. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching while they drove down the road I waved hasta la vista and pondered on what my wife would ask me if ever I made the very same mistake... I would personally never live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Hempstead

A teenager who had only just passed his driving test had wrong fueled his metallic grey BMW X5 by getting unleaded in the diesel vehicle at the filling station close to Hempstead. He said, "This is only the third occasion I have fueled my vehicle from the time when I paid for it and I have no clue of how to handle it." He was anxious since his step father had just recently paid for the car. He located our company on the web and so called it right away, worried about what he ought to do. Our guy on the call explained to him that we could be on scene inside forty five minutes and to not move his car while he waited. We finished the fuel drain on his car and he mentioned how surprised he was that it was taken care of so quickly and without any consequence at all.

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.
