The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container laying at the rear of your garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and commercial properties in Oxfordshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some drums in a shed, assuming that we can get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a significant matter to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel is going to cause idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both circumstances quite quickly.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one is going to 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.
