It was just before 7 pm on a Wednesday and though we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ryan and I were relaxing going over the recent sports, waiting for the sixth call for the day to arrive. Before long we had the phone call from a girl on a company trip who had pulled into the Esso petrol garage in Welsh Bicknor and filled petrol in a diesel burgundy red Vauxhall Meriva hire car. The unfortunate lady was rather distressed it seemed, crying "I simply can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that such things regrettably can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe space and, seeing that it was only a few miles off from where we were, we could find the lady swiftly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Although we got very drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away satisfied and much less stressed. Yet another job in Gloucestershire well done in my books!

Waste Fuel Removal

We have been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in Gloucestershire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a storage shed, as long as we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to handle in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol will often lead to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Bear in mind though that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous 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.
