The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container laying in the back of your garden with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and commercial premises in Shropshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a garage, provided that we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important situation to deal with in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel can easily lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both cases very simply.

Take note though that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will probably 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.
