It was close to eight pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Mark and me were sitting discussing the weekend's sports, waiting for the next fuel drain of the day to arrive. Inevitably we had a phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol station in Low Moorsley and put petrol in a diesel modified Mitsubishi Outlander rental by mistake. The poor lady was fairly irritated it seemed, telling me "I simply cannot believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car that I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that things like this unfortunately often happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a secure spot and, seeing that it was just a few miles off from our van, we could reach her almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she could get back to the motel she was lodging at. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off relaxed and much less apprehensive. A misfuel correction in Tyne and Wear well done in my mind!

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious situation to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank is going to produce idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both cases very easily.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will probably be totally water-logged and unusable.

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel container sitting at the back of the garden with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and business properties in Tyne and Wear to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in an outbuilding, providing we can reach it, we are able to empty it for you.


Wrong Fuel in Car in DH5 Postcode - Low Moorsley Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a bright Saturday and I was on the way to help an old lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel spotless Ford in Low Moorsley. I'd been advised she drove away from the filling station forecourt and was broken down in a rural lane on route to visit her grandchildren. I plugged her location into the Satnav and was on-scene within 60 minutes. I reached the vehicle and drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing it she said, "Now I'm getting relatively absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car needing diesel because I'd just purchased it a week ago after my old one, which I'd used for in excess of thirty years, finally died". I finished the job and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. What a delightful Tyne and Wear lady!

This was most definitely an unsociable time to be up. It was about 3:30am and noone was stirring. It had been fairly uneventful until now, and Brian and I were relaxing browsing a couple of old newspapers. That was a rare tranquil time in Tyne and Wear. It was indeed that quiet that the instant my mobile eventually rang it made me start! The motorist said: "I have concluded my evening shift and incredibly filled petrol in my diesel mint green BMW 650 by mistake". I told him to inform us exactly where the vehicle was located and we left, ending up in Low Moorsley under 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle. He said thanks for getting there so fast. While we were coming back to base we noticed two ladies on the edge of the road who seemed to have a flat. As a result we stopped to change it, much to their elation.

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 VA 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.
