The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container lying at the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several domestic and industrial properties in Shropshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even a number of drums in a shed, providing we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant issue to take care of in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can potentially bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases quite easily.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will be thoroughly 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.
