The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel tank in the rear of your premises containing aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in Worcestershire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a storage shed, if we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious issue to take care of in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel will often cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both cases very easily.

Remember though that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

A guy had conked out near a road in Birlingham. His metallic blue Cadillac Fleetwood motor had stopped working and he had no clue what was awry until eventually he realised he put unleaded in his diesel car.

This was exactly the graveyard shift. It was about dawn and noone was around. It had been fairly uneventful up to now, and John and I were relaxing reading through a couple of old papers. It was a rare peaceful moment in Worcestershire. It was that calm that when the phone inevitably rang it made me jump! The customer on the other end explained: "I only just completed my overnight shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in a company's Alfa Romeo Spider in error". I told him to let us know where he was and we left, ending up in Birlingham no more than 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was taken out from the vehicle and he thanked us profusely for showing up so fast. While we were coming back home we noticed two ladies at the edge of the road who appeared to have a puncture. As a result we stopped to help them 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 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.
