The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a significant situation to handle in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol will likely contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both circumstances very quickly.

Keep in mind though that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir laying at the rear of your garden containing out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial properties in Northumberland to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages.

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

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
