It was about 10 pm on a Thursday and although we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were seated there talking about the recent football, ready for the 8th telephone call that day to arrive. Eventually we got a call from a lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Toll Bar and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel creamy white Lexus rental car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was quite irritated apparently, stating "I still cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to worry, also that these things sadly can happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a safe area and, as it was no more than a short distance off from us, we could arrive at her right away. The bad fuel was drained so she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Although we got pretty drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off contented and much less stressed. One more fuel drain in Merseyside done well in my books!

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir placed in the back of your premises full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and industrial properties in Merseyside to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a storage shed, if we can access it, we can certainly drain it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to handle in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel tank is going to cause idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances pretty easily.

You should know however that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

Just picture being stranded in a vehicle with the improper fuel in the middle of the road. One of our last customers who filled her car with the wrong fuel (canary yellow Ford Fusion) in Toll Bar encountered literally this headache: "Unfortunately I foolishly put petrol in my diesel car recently. I was so stressed about contaminating my fuel that I was besides myself. Nevertheless I shouldn't have concerned myself as you were amazing in sorting the problem out."

A customer living in Toll Bar phoned us shortly after she managed to get her wrong fueled vehicle to the office. She had put unleaded in her diesel modified Chevrolet Suburban and, like many people before her, thought that she could just fill up the tank with diesel and it'd be fine. The engine was chugging and then it died when she reached the entrance of her work. We promptly started on the fuel drain after she called and had it sorted in an hour or so while she was at the office. She came outside soon after and thanked us stating, "I'm extremely pleased you repaired my car."

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.
