The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a garage, providing we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to address in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel may well lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both circumstances fairly easily.

Remember though that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
