The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel tank lying in the rear of your premises full of unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in Staffordshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even numerous containers in a shed, as long as we can access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important issue to address in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel may well contribute to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases very simply.

Be aware however that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

What a good night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a sunny Wednesday and I was on my way to assist an old lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel precious Cadillac Catera in Stanfield.

While I was doing the drain she said, "I have been getting relatively forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel because I had only bought it a couple of days back right after my former car, which I had for in excess of 25 years, finally stopped working". I got the job completed and she presented me a peppermint and said thanks. Such a precious Staffordshire lady!

I had a terrific afternoon hiking during my afternoon off and was feeling contented with myself the next morning as I was on the way to help a young couple who were holidaying in Stanfield. They had pulled over after adding diesel in their metallic green Range Rover Classic, and the car was about half an hour's travel away. I showed up at their car and smiled while I listened to the woman chastising her partner for actually being so stupid. "Precisely how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this problem comes to pass on a regular basis in Staffordshire and that it is absolutely nothing to get worried about, but he yet still had an earful by his wife. Unfortunate guy. Anyhow, I extracted all of the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive off I waved so long and wondered what my missus would do to me if I made the exact same blunder... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Stanfield

I'm not necessarily very interested in carrying out work weekends, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I had only just left the family following a tasty roast prepared for us by the better half, and I was on the way to help a man because he filled the wrong fuel in his navy blue Smart Forfour. He was situated in Stanfield thus I arrived there before long. As I arrived at the vehicle and got out he told me "Praise the Lord! I incredibly had my concentration on something else and failed to grasp that I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. I need to know if I created any kind of problems because of starting it?" I explained generally there probably should not be any damage and also I'd remove the contaminated fuel right away for him. Obviously I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and put in the suitable fuel, and then one more content motorist could continue his journey without bother. He did not stop saying thanks to me, and that is exactly what tends to make working on weekends in Staffordshire that little bit less painful in my opinion!

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.
