The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel container placed at the back of the garden full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and commercial premises in Herefordshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps several drums in a shed, assuming that we can access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank will often lead to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of properly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both cases quite quickly.

Take note however that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be totally wet and unusable.

I completed the job and she gifted me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a lovely Herefordshire lady!

Wrong Fuel Assist Leinthall Starkes - Wrong Fuel in Car Leinthall Starkes

I appreciated a terrific day hiking on my off day and was feeling delighted the following working day as I set off to assist a young family on vacation in Leinthall Starkes. They had stopped after filling the wrong fuel into their burgundy red BMW M6, and were around an hour away. I got there at their car and laughed to myself as I heard to the girl telling off her hubby for actually being so stupid. "Precisely how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I wanted to clarify that this goes on frequently in Herefordshire and that it's nothing at all to be concerned about, and yet he yet still had an earful. Unlucky chap. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted good-bye and considered what her indoors would tell me in the event that I made the exact same blunder... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

This was exactly what we call an unsociable hour to be up. It was roughly dawn and noone was about. It was quite dead thus far, and Ray and I were loafing about looking at a number of old articles. That was an unusual peaceful time in Herefordshire. Actually it was indeed so tranquil that when the phone eventually rang I leaped with surprise! The motorist stated: "I just ended my night shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in the diesel beloved Hyundai Scoupe". We instructed him to let us know just where he was located and we left, ending up in Leinthall Starkes no more than 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned from the engine and he said thank you for coming out so quickly. While we were coming back to the depot we saw two women at the edge of the road who seemed to have a flat tyre. So we got out and helped them change it, 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.
