The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually an important issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel may well result in idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both cases fairly expediently.

Remember however that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel container placed at the back of the garden containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business properties in Merton to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even several containers in a shed, if we can get to it, we can certainly drain it.


Wrong Fuel in Car in SW20 Postcode - Copse Hill Misfueling

Just had a quality night's sleep! 7:00 am on a warm Wednesday and I was en route to help an older lovely lady after she had put petrol in her diesel beloved Lexus RX in Copse Hill. I'd been told she had left the petrol station forecourt and pulled up along a country lane on the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I got the location plugged into the Satnav and got there within an hour or so. I got to the destination and removed the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. As I was working she explained, "I am getting rather forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle using diesel since I'd only got it several days back when my former one, which I had used for in excess of 25 years, inevitably broke down". I got the job completed and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a pleasant Merton lady!

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.
