The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel reservoir lying at the back of the garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and commercial properties in Leicestershire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even some drums in a garage, providing we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be an important issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank will often result in idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases pretty expediently.

Bear in mind that if the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will be totally wet and useless.

Ahhh, that was a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 on a gloomy Wednesday and we were on my way to help an old lovely lady who put contaminated fuel in her diesel daughter's Peugeot 505 in Peggs Green. She informed us that she drove away from the filling station forecourt and pulled up in a backwater lane on the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I plugged the location in the Satnav and arrived within an hour or so. I reached the location and extracted the wrong fuel out of the car. While I was doing it she told me, "Now I'm becoming relatively absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car using diesel seeing that I had just bought it a week back because my former one, which I'd used for in excess of twenty years, inevitably broke down". I completed the job and she gifted me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. What a pleasant Leicestershire woman!

So, in the event that you have filled your petrol vehicle with the wrong fuel, or put petrol in your diesel motor vehicle somewhere in Leicestershire, speak to us immediately. Our competent technicians are ready and waiting for your call.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Peggs Green

Now I am not actually so excited about working weekends, and a while back was the same. I'd only just come away from the family following a fantastic lunch made by the missus, and I was on the way to sort out a gentleman after he had put the wrong fuel in his metallic silver Jaguar XJ Series. He was only in Peggs Green therefore I was on scene before long. As I pulled up behind the car and got out he explained to me "Praise the Almighty! I foolishly had my thoughts on other considerations and did not perceive I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I brought about problems by starting it?" I stated there should not be any problems and also I'd get the wrong fuel drained immediately for him. As expected I drained the contaminated fuel from the car and put in the correct fuel, and so one more content customer could carry on with his ride without the need for difficulty. The gentleman did not stop thanking me, and this is exactly what helps make earning a living on weekends in Leicestershire that little bit easier for me!

This really was what is called an unsociable hour to be awake. It was close to 3 in the morning and noone was stirring. It had become rather dead until now, and Brian and I were relaxing looking through some old magazines. It was an uncommon peaceful time in Leicestershire. Actually it was so calm that when the phone ultimately rang it made me start! The voice on the other end stated: "I have only just concluded my evening shift and foolishly put petrol in the diesel racing green Vauxhall Insignia by mistake". I told him to inform us where he was located and we set off, getting to him in Peggs Green only half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was removed from the engine and he said thank you for coming so rapidly. As we were going back to the depot we found two young ladies on the edge of the street who seemed to have a flat. Accordingly we got out to 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.
