The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel tank placed at the rear of the garden with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business properties in Surrey to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we can access it, we can certainly empty it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a serious condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can certainly bring about idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances rather quickly.

Remember though that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will likely be completely wet and unusable.

What a fantastic night's sleep! It was 7:00 on a bright Tuesday and we were off to help an elder lady after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel dark blue Volvo C30 in Warlingham. She told us that she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and broken down along a rural road en route to visit her grandchildren. I got her location plugged into the Satnav and was with her within an hour or so. I arrived at the vehicle and drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she said to me, "Now I'm getting fairly forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car working with diesel as I'd only purchased it a week back after my other car, which I had owned for over 30 years, finally stopped working". I got the drain completed and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. What a delightful Surrey lady!

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.
