The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to address in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel is likely to produce idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not addressed fully, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both situations quite simply.

Be aware however that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and useless.

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir placed in the rear of the garden full of old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and industrial premises in Surrey to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in an outbuilding, if we can get to it, we are able to empty it.


Wrong Fuel in Car in GU23 Postcode - Send Grove Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night's sleep! 7:30 am on a rainy Saturday and we were en route to help an old lady who had put petrol in her diesel clean white Volvo S40 in Send Grove. I'd been informed she drove away from the filling station forecourt and pulled up on a country lane along the way to see her grandchildren. I plugged her location in the Satnav and arrived within an hour or so. I turned up at the destination and drained the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. As I was working she told me, "I have been getting rather forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car working with diesel since I'd only purchased it a few days back after my other one, which I'd owned for more than thirty years, inevitably stopped working". I got the job completed and she offered me a toffee and said thanks. What a precious Surrey woman!

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.
