The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel tank placed in the back of your premises containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in Leicestershire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps several containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to access it, we are able to drain it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important situation to take care of in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can lead to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with properly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases pretty simply.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one is going to be completely wet and useless.

This really was what is called an unsociable hour to be up. It was around dawn and hardly anyone was stirring. It had become quite uneventful until now, and Ray and I were sitting perusing some old magazines. It was an unusual peaceful moment in Leicestershire. It was so calm that the moment the telephone eventually rang it made me start! The voice said: "I have ended my evening shift and incredibly put petrol in a bright yellow Suzuki Reno". We got him to let us know where exactly he was located and we left, ending up in Greenhill under 30 minutes later. The fuel was removed from the vehicle and he thanked us profusely for coming out so promptly. While we were returning home we noticed two ladies at the edge of the highway who seemed like they had a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled up and helped them change it, much 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.
