The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important situation to handle in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel can certainly bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations very easily.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.

Waste Fuel Disposal

We've been called out to a number of privately owned and business properties in Lincolnshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages.

No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a storage shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it.


Wrong Fuel in Car in PE24 Postcode - Bratoft Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a great night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 on a gloomy Saturday and I was en route to assist an elder lady who had put petrol in her diesel mint green Lexus LX in Bratoft. I had been advised she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and was stranded along a rural lane en route to visit her grandchildren. I popped her location into the TomTom and was with her within 60 minutes. I got to the stricken lady and removed the contaminated fuel from the car. As I was doing the drain she explained, "I have been becoming rather forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car needing diesel seeing that I had just bought it a week back because my old car, which I had owned for more than 25 years, eventually stopped working". I got the drain completed and she gifted me a toffee and said thanks a lot. Such a precious Lincolnshire lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car Lincolnshire - Petrol in Diesel Car Bratoft

We not long ago had a phone call about a young man who put the incorrect fuel in his wife's Jaguar XK in Bratoft. He had ground to a halt on the road. "After inserting unleaded in my diesel car I didn't discover the problem before we conked out. You removed the wrong fuel from my car and had it functioning again. I was happy due to both how swift you were and your charges". Needless to say we were on-scene punctually and flushed the engine after flushing the unleaded from the diesel tank. The motorist was over the moon by the time we were done and he went off completely satisfied.

A woman living in Bratoft called us shortly after she had tried to get her wrong fueled car to her office. She had filled petrol in her diesel dirty red BMW 3 Series and, like many prior to her, assumed that she could basically fill the vehicle with diesel and it would run okay. The vehicle was coughing and then it died when she arrived at the the front of her office. We immediately went to work on the fuel drain following her call and got it resolved in an hour while she was at the office. She came out later on and thanked us stating, "I'm very delighted 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 VA 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.
