The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel reservoir laying at the back of your premises containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Staffordshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps some containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can empty it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to deal with in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can bring about idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both circumstances very easily.

Bear in mind however that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

She had filled petrol in her diesel modified Volkswagen Golf III and, like plenty before her, assumed that she could simply top up her vehicle with diesel and it'd run alright. The engine was chugging and then it cut out when she reached the the front of her office.

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.
