Waste Fuel Removal

We've been called out to many domestic and business properties in Nottinghamshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a garage, providing we can access it, we are able to drain it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally a significant issue to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can certainly contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases very expediently.

Take note though that whenever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be totally wet 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.
