The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container in the rear of your garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and commercial premises in Oxfordshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious condition to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can easily cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with fully, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances very quickly.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

It truly was an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was around sunrise and noone was stirring. It had been rather uneventful so far, and Ray and I were sitting reading through some old papers. That was a rare calm hour in Oxfordshire. Actually it was indeed so calm that the instant the phone eventually rang it made me start! The motorist on the other end told me: "I only just completed my evening shift and stupidly poured petrol in my blue Ford". I got him to let us know exactly where he was situated and we set off, reaching him in Crowsley less than half an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleared from the car and he said many thanks for getting there so promptly. As we were returning to base we noticed two ladies at the edge of the road who appeared to have a flat. As a result we pulled over and helped them change it, to their elation.

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.
