The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a serious matter to address in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel is likely to lead to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both circumstances quite swiftly.

Bear in mind however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel reservoir placed at the back of the garden full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in Oxfordshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a garage, as long as we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

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.

    • 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.
