The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel reservoir placed at the rear of your garden with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and business properties in Herefordshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even several containers in a storage shed, providing we can reach it, we can drain it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to take care of in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can potentially result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of fully, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations quite easily.

Take note though that if the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

A somewhat alarmed driver phoned us from the Texaco filling station at Herefordshire to advise us that he had put unleaded in his diesel navy blue BMW 525; he wasn't quite sure how he'd done it. We told him it was not a situation and quickly had our man with him to drain the contaminated fuel from his tank. Having taken out the contaminated fuel, he was soon back driving. He told us; "I am genuinely dumbfounded I filled my car with the wrong fuel. And the gentleman who came out to carry out the fuel drain was really excellent - he did not make me look and feel stupid."

It doesn't matter if your vehicle is brand new or classic, we have the capabilities, know-how AND hardware to make certain that your vehicle is drained and flushed of all contaminated fuel at once, which means that you are able to carry on with your passage with nominal disruption.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Grafton

I'm not necessarily very hot for working Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I'd only just departed the family after having a tasty roast prepared for me by the wife, and I was off to deal with a fellow because he filled the wrong fuel in his sombre grey Mercedes E-Class. He was only in Grafton thus I arrived on scene before long. Just as I drove up behind the vehicle and got busy draining he explained to me "Praise God! I had my concentration on other considerations and failed to perceive I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I created any kind of problems by running it?" I stated that there should not be any kind of damage and that also I would get the wrong fuel drained immediately. Naturally I drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle and put in some correct fuel, and thus another pleased customer could carry on with their traveling without any difficulty. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and that can make earning a living on weekends in Herefordshire a little bit less painful for me personally!

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.
