The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel reservoir in the back of the garden with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and industrial premises in Northamptonshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even some containers in a shed, providing we are able to reach it, we can drain it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a significant matter to deal with in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank will result in idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases fairly expediently.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

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.
