The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container placed in the back of your premises with out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and commercial properties in Shropshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a shed, if we can reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to address in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the fuel is going to lead to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases pretty easily.

Be aware that if the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel Assist Brandhill - Wrong Fuel in Car Brandhill

I enjoyed a terrific evening fishing during my off day and was feeling pleased the following morning as I was en route to aid a young couple who were away in Brandhill. They conked out after adding petrol into their customised Isuzu i-370, and they were around an hour away. I turned up at their car and smiled to myself as I listened to the woman chastising her spouse for turning out to be so silly. "Exactly how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this problem occurs all the time in Shropshire and that it is nothing to be concerned about, but he all the same had an ear bashing. Unlucky boy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all of the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. As they drove down the road I mouthed good-bye and considered what my missus would do to me if I did the exact same thing... I'd never ever hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Brandhill

I'm certainly not too keen on working on Sundays, and a while back was the same. I had only just left the family filled with a wonderful Sunday roast made for us by the wife, and I was off to assist a gentleman after he filled the incorrect fuel in his dirty red Mitsubishi Eclipse. He was located in Brandhill thus it wasn't a long time before I reached him. As I pulled up at the rear of the vehicle and got busy draining he told me "Praise the Almighty! I had my mind on other considerations and failed to grasp that I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I caused damage because of driving it?" I said there probably should not be any kind of harm and that I would get the fuel drained as quickly as possible for him. It goes without saying that I drained the fuel from the car and filled up with some correct fuel, and one more satisfied client was able to continue their traveling without any subsequent difficulty. He could hardly stop thanking me, and this is actually what tends to make earning a living on weekends in Shropshire just a small bit less painful in my opinion!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Brandhill - Fuel Rescue Brandhill

This was most definitely what we call the night shift. It was around 2 in the morning and noone was around. It had been quite uneventful up to now, and me and Ryan were relaxing looking through a few old newspapers. It was an unusual peaceful hour in Shropshire. Actually it was indeed that tranquil that the instant my mobile inevitably rang I jumped with surprise! The customer said: "I finished my evening shift and foolishly filled petrol in a diesel burgundy red MINI Cooper". I instructed him to inform us where exactly the car was and we headed out, reaching him in Brandhill under an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was cleared from the vehicle. He thanked us for arriving so fast. As we were heading back home we saw two women on the side of the road who seemed to have a flat. Accordingly we got out and helped them change it, much 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.
