Other Fuel Services

After cleaning out the wrong fuel in car, we dispose of the fuel in an eco-friendly manner because we believe in doing right by all. The majority of clients do not have an inkling of what we do and that it isn't a simple thing. It is not simple to do so because you must be able to stick to the strict rules set by the Environment Agency and must be authorized by them before you can legally get rid of it. We offer this service to both private and commercial clients. We dump all the fuel using large capacity tanks, trailer loads, and containers to mention but a few. You can be assured that we do all this safely and legally.

In addition, we are well-versed in other issues that may negatively influence the usual performance of your car's fuel system. An example is if you add any unwanted liquid, say water that may ruin the fuel in the system. As much as AdBlue is a recommended diesel emission cleaner when added straight to your fuel system, it might cause engine malfunctioning. So, when there are similar events, we are the recommended team to make things right.

You can be certain that our technical crew is conversant with dealing with the problem of water and AdBlue. Our secret lies in our great know-how and contemporary tools that help us get you back on the road in record time.

It was around eight pm on a Thursday and although we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased pouring! Paul and I were seated commenting on the weekend's sports results, prepared for the sixth call that day to come in. Finally we had a call from a young lady on a company trip who had gone to the BP filling garage and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Stone hire car. She was somewhat troubled it seemed, telling me "I can not believe I've messed up the car! I am so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I had forgot I was running a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that things like this unfortunately often happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a secure space and, seeing as it was just a short distance from where we were, we could get to the customer quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to go home to the motel she was lodging at. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive away relaxed and much less anxious. Another job done well in my books!

Wrong Fuel in Car Stone - Petrol in Diesel Car Stone

It was just before 6 pm on a Saturday and although we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were seated talking about the recent footy results, waiting around for the seventh telephone call for the day to come in. Finally we got the call from a woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the Shell filling garage and put petrol in a diesel Stone rental car by mistake. She was very troubled apparently, stating "I cannot believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to worry, plus that these things sadly can happen. She was able to relocate the car to a secure position and, because it was just a few minutes off from us, we were able to find the woman fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she was able to return to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Although we got very drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home contented and much less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain well done in my mind!

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 anywhere in South Yorkshire to 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.
