The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Disposal

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

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a garage, as long as we can access it, we are able to drain it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant condition to take care of in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel can potentially contribute to idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not addressed properly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both circumstances rather simply.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.


Wrong Fuel in Car in GL19 Postcode - Pendock Misfueling

Just had a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a sunny Sunday and we were en route to help an old lovely lady after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel cyan Peugeot 107 in Pendock. I'd been told she had left the petrol station forecourt and was stranded on a backwater road along the way to visit her godchildren. I got her location punched straight into the Satnav and was with her within an hour or so. I arrived at the location and removed the contaminated fuel from the car. While I was doing the drain she said to me, "I have been getting fairly forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car working with diesel seeing that I had only just bought it a short while ago after my old one, which I had for about twenty years, eventually died". I finished the job and she gave me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. Such a precious Worcestershire woman!

Wrong Fuel Assist Pendock - Wrong Fuel in Car Pendock

I'd had a fantastic afternoon fishing on my off day and felt pleased the next day as I headed out to aid a new couple away in Pendock. They'd stopped after filling the wrong fuel into their metallic silver Mitsubishi, and were approximately an hour's travel away. I got there at their location and smiled as I listened to the lady telling her hubby off for actually being so confused. "How could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this situation comes to pass quite frequently in Worcestershire and that it's actually absolutely nothing to worry about, but he still got an ear bashing. Poor lad. Anyway, I removed the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the right fuel. As they drove away I shouted good bye and pondered on what my missus would ask me in the event that I did the very same thing... I'd never live it down!

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.
