The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container lying in the rear of the garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and business properties in Hampshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even numerous containers in a storage shed, if we can get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a significant issue to take care of in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank can easily lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both situations rather easily.

Remember however that any time the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.


Wrong Fuel in Car in RG25 Postcode - Weston Corbett Misfueling

What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a gloomy Sunday and I was on my way to assist an old lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel partner's Volvo S90 in Weston Corbett. She informed us that she had driven away from the filling station and broken down along a rural road on route to visit her family. I plugged the location straight into the TomTom and was on-scene inside an hour. I arrived at the destination and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was working she explained, "I am becoming fairly forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel since I'd only just purchased it several days ago because my former one, which I had for about 25 years, eventually died". I got the job done and she gifted me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. What a pleasant Hampshire woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Weston Corbett

Now I'm certainly not very enthusiastic about working on Sundays, and a while back was no different. I had just come away from home after eating a wonderful lunch prepared for me by the better half, and I was en route to assist a fellow who had put the incorrect petrol in his super Cadillac CTS. He was located in Weston Corbett thus I was there almost immediately. As I pulled up at the rear of the car and started work he told me "Thank the Lord! I had my thoughts on other considerations and didn't ascertain I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I caused some damage by simply running it?" I stated there probably should not be any harm and also that I would personally remove the wrong fuel as soon as possible for him. Naturally I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and put in the correct fuel, and thus one more delighted customer had the ability to continue on their journey without the need for difficulty. The man couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and this is actually what tends to make working on Sundays in Hampshire a little bit easier to me!

A lady living in Weston Corbett phoned us as soon as she had managed to get her wrong fueled vehicle to her office. She had filled petrol in her diesel brother's Toyota Camry and, like many prior to her, imagined that she would be able to basically top up the car with diesel and it would run alright. The vehicle was coughing and then it stopped when she came to the the front of her office. We soon went to work on the fuel drain following her call and had it fixed within one hour while she was working. She came outside when we finished and thanked us stating, "I'm very pleased you repaired my vehicle."

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.
