Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container at the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in Wiltshire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a garage, if we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important matter to take care of in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can bring about idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both cases quite quickly.

You should know that any time the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

I'd had a terrific day golfing on my off day and was feeling contented the next morning as I set out to help a young couple who were away in Temple. They had stopped after filling diesel in their clean white Citron, and were roughly half an hour's drive away. I emerged at their location and laughed to myself while I listened to the gal berating her partner for actually being so confused. "Precisely how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this occurs constantly in Wiltshire and that it's nothing to worry about, even so he in spite of everything had his ear bent by his better half. Poor lad. Anyways, I removed all the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved hasta la vista and thought about what my missus would tell me if I did the same thing... I would under no circumstances live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Temple

We a few weeks ago got a call about a businessman who had put the incorrect fuel in his dirty red Mercedes-Benz M-Class in Temple. He had conked out on the street. "After adding petrol in my diesel car I didn't notice the problem until I stopped working. You removed the wrong fuel from my car and got it working again. I was amazed because of both how quick you were and your charges". As you can imagine we arrived on the scene promptly and purged the engine after draining all the wrong fuel from the diesel tank. On arrival the engineer said the motorist was raging, but was really happy afterwards.

This was certainly the graveyard shift. It was around 2:30 in the morning and almost noone was stirring. It was rather dead thus far, and John and I were sitting around reading a few old articles. This was a rare tranquil hour in Wiltshire. Actually it was in fact so peaceful that the moment the telephone rang it made me jump! The motorist on the phone stated: "I have only just finished my evening shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in my light green Honda Accord by mistake". I got him to tell us where exactly he was and we set off, getting to him in Temple no more than an hour later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the motor and he thanked us profusely for coming out so rapidly. As we were going back home we found two girls at the edge of the road who looked like they had a puncture. As a result we stopped and helped them change it, much to their delight.

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.
