Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel tank sitting in the back of the garden with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business premises in Oxfordshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a number of containers in a storage shed, providing we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant condition to take care of in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol can certainly result in idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed effectively, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both circumstances very swiftly.

Keep in mind that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Lower Tadmarton

Now I am not necessarily that keen on running on Sundays, and a week ago was no different. I had only just come away from home after a tasty dinner prepared by the wife, and I was off to help a man after he put the wrong petrol in his clean white Volkswagen GLI. He was stationed in Lower Tadmarton hence it wasn't a long time before I reached him. Just as I arrived at the car and got out he said to me "Praise the Lord! I had my mind on stuff and failed to realise I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I created damage as a result of running it?" I explained generally there should not be any harm and that also I'd personally drain the fuel as soon as possible. Obviously I got the wrong fuel drained from the vehicle and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and then one more contented motorist was able to carry on with their ride without the hassle. He could not stop thanking me, and that is exactly what can make earning a living on weekends in Oxfordshire just that tiny bit better to me!

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.
