The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a significant issue to deal with in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol will likely contribute to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both situations fairly simply.

Keep in mind however that if ever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel container sitting at the rear of your garden full of out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and business premises in Lincolnshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even numerous drums in a storage shed, if we are able to reach it, we can drain it.


Wrong Fuel in Car in PE10 Postcode - Grimsthorpe Misfueling

A relatively concerned customer called us from the Esso filling station at Lincolnshire to tell us that he put unleaded in his diesel faithful Toyota FJ Cruiser; he wasn't really sure how he'd done it.

He told us; "I can't believe I put petrol in my diesel car. And the technician who came to take care of the fuel drain was incredibly fantastic - he did not make me seem stupid."

Wrong Fuel in Car Lincolnshire - Petrol in Diesel Car Grimsthorpe

We performed a wrong fuel retrieval exercise near a beautiful residence in Grimsthorpe a few weeks ago. "I had put the wrong fuel in my diesel car and managed to more or less get home when my car stopped." Our specialist went out, regardless that it was fairly late at night, and did a thorough fuel drain and cleanse on the white BMW X6 M .

Wrong Fuel Doctor Grimsthorpe - Fuel Rescue Grimsthorpe

A lady from Grimsthorpe with her children in her diesel grass green Honda CR-Z had put £40 of petrol at the Sainsburys station. She contacted us sobbing and really upset as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel previously and did not know what could happen to her car in doing so. We told her that all would be alright and that she would be up and running in no time at all. When we arrived she was still distressed but as our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she saw that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon cheered up and was on her way saying, "I really can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Especially with the little ones in the back."

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.
