The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important matter to handle in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can bring about idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both cases pretty easily.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and useless.

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel reservoir laying in the rear of your premises with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and business properties in Hampshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a storage shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we can empty it.

A young lady employed in Charlton called us as soon as she tried to get her misfueled vehicle to work. She had filled petrol in her diesel luxury Volvo C30 and, like plenty before her, thought that she could basically top up the tank with diesel and it would be alright. The engine was coughing and then it stopped when she got to the entrance of her work. We promptly started on the fuel drain following her call and got it sorted within an hour while she was at the office. She came out soon after and thanked us saying, "I'm really relieved you sorted my car."

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.
