It was after 9 pm on a Saturday and though we were assured a dry night, it hadn't given up on raining!

Finally we got the phone call from a lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Texaco filling garage in Wragby and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel beautiful Renault Laguna rental car. The unfortunate thing was pretty distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I simply cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember that I was operating a diesel!"

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important condition to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel may well bring about idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both cases very easily.

Be aware though that whenever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel reservoir lying in the back of your garden full of old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several domestic and industrial premises in Lincolnshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a storage shed, if we are able to reach it, we can empty it for you.

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.
