It was before eight pm on a Friday and while we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were seated discussing the weekend's tennis results, ready for the 8th job to arrive. Finally we got a phone call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had arrived at the BP petrol garage in Lambley and filled petrol in her diesel burgundy red Land Rover Range Rover rental car in error. She was quite distressed apparently, telling me "I cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to fret, and that such things unfortunately can happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure spot and, as it was only a few miles away from where we were, we could reach her swiftly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was staying in. Although we got pretty soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive off calm and much less concerned. One more job in Nottinghamshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel tank laying in the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in Nottinghamshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we can access it, we could certainly drain it.

AdBlue Contamination

What you should do in the event that you have put AdBlue in a Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that’s made out of a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). It tends to be harmful to your automobile's fuel system, especially any time you run the engine with AdBlue in the tank. Once the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will be pushed into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, triggering devastating and costly harm to your car's fuel system.

Contact us if it turns out you are going through AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to attend to every type of AdBlue contamination.


Wrong Fuel in Car in NG4 Postcode - Lambley Misfueling

Just had a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a sunny Wednesday and I was off to help an old lady who had put petrol in her diesel classic Audi A3 in Lambley. I'd been advised she had left the filling station and pulled up along a rural road on the way to pay a visit to her family. I plugged her location into the TomTom and arrived inside an hour. I got to the car and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. While I was doing the work she said to me, "I'm becoming fairly forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car taking diesel as I had only got it a short while ago after my old one, which I had for in excess of 30 years, finally died on me". I finished the drain and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. Such a pleasant Nottinghamshire lady!

A customer rang us from his home on a close in Lambley. He said, "My vehicle (a blue Mercedes CLK-Class) is not starting up and is making very bad sounds when I flip the key." He admitted that he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle but then imagined he would remedy the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We arrived promptly, carried out the drain and filled it up once again with clean Diesel. He said he would be absolutely sure to tell people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out promptly.

This was exactly an unsociable time to be awake. It was around dawn and hardly anyone was about. It had become pretty dead up to now, and Ray and I were loafing around browsing some old newspapers. This was a rare peaceful moment in Nottinghamshire. Actually it was indeed that calm that the instant the telephone rang it made me start! The motorist on the other end told me: "I have just ended my night shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in my mint condition VW Tiguan". We instructed him to inform us where exactly the car was located and we headed out, getting to him in Lambley under an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car and he thanked us for getting there so rapidly. As we were coming back home we saw two girls at the side of the highway who looked like they had a puncture. Obviously we got out to change it, to their delight.

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.
