The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir at the back of your premises full of unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several domestic and industrial properties in Northamptonshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several containers in a shed, as long as we can get to it, we can empty it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important issue to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank will likely trigger idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both circumstances very quickly.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel Assist Dodford - Wrong Fuel in Car Dodford

I had appreciated a great day golfing on my afternoon off and was feeling delighted with myself the following day as I was on the way to aid a young family who were away in Dodford. They conked out after inserting the wrong fuel in their customised Skoda, and the car was about half an hour away. I emerged at their location and smirked to myself as I listened to the lady chastising her hubby for turning out to be so stupid. "Exactly how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I tried to explain that this comes to pass on daily basis in Northamptonshire and that it's nothing to be concerned about, even so he still got an earful. Unfortunate chap. At any rate, I drained the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed good bye and pondered on what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I made the same mistake... I'd personally never hear the end of it!

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.
