It was just before 5 pm on a Wednesday and though we were guaranteed a dry evening, it had not stopped raining! James and I were seated there going over the recent golf rankings, waiting around for the 8th call for the day to arrive. In due time we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Little Shurdington and put petrol in a diesel metallic red Vauxhall Signum rental in error. The unfortunate thing was fairly distressed apparently, stating "I just can't believe that I have ruined the car! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to fret, also that such things unfortunately do happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a secure position and, since it was no more than a few minutes from our van, we could get to her rather quickly. The wrong fuel was removed and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Although we got pretty soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away calm and not so worried. Another fuel drain in Gloucestershire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in Gloucestershire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a shed, assuming that we can get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious condition to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel may well cause idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances fairly simply.

Keep in mind that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and ineffective.
