The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container laying in the back of the garden containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business properties in Essex for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to reach it, we can drain it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important issue to address in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel can certainly cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both circumstances fairly quickly.

Remember that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

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.
