It was just after 7 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! Brian and I were sitting discussing the football results, ready for the next telephone call of the day to arrive. In due time we got the phone call from a girl on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Sharpness and filled petrol in a diesel teal BMW Z4 lease car by mistake. She was quite troubled it seemed, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car I had didn't remember I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to fret, and also that things like this sadly often happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a protected space and, as it was only a short distance from the office, we could get to her rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she could get back to the motel she was lodging at. Although we got extremely soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive home contented and a lot less stressed. A fuel drain in Gloucestershire well done in my books!

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir laying at the back of your premises full of out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and commercial properties in Gloucestershire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few drums in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Gloucestershire we are noticing progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree due to motorists being unsure of the right way to to make use of (note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to each other on the vehicle.

So, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?

Because the product is predominantly deionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If perhaps you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it immediately. And certainly don't start up the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. Assuming you did start the car you would very likely have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Any time you get in this situation do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our technicians have got the practical know-how and working experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

We completed a wrong fuel retrieval exercise on the drive of a beautiful residence in Sharpness not so long ago. "I had put petrol in my diesel car and managed to very nearly get home when my car broke down." Our fuel drainer went out, despite the fact that it was pretty late at night, and completed a fuel drain and cleanse on the burgundy red Hyundai HED-5 to everyone's satisfaction.

This was certainly an unsociable time to be awake. It was roughly sunrise and noone was stirring. It was rather quiet thus far, and Paul and I were loafing around reading a couple of old papers. It was an unusual calm hour in Gloucestershire. It was in fact that peaceful that the moment the telephone inevitably rang it made me jump! The person on the opposite end explained: "I have finished my overnight shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in the beautiful Seat Altea by mistake". We asked him to inform us exactly where the car was situated and we headed out, getting to him in Sharpness under an hour later. The contaminated fuel was removed from the engine. He said thanks for showing up so promptly. As we were heading back to the depot we found two girls on the side of the street who seemed to have a flat tyre. So we stopped and helped them change it, much to their delight.

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.
