It was close to 5 pm on a Monday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Dan and I were seated talking over the tennis results, waiting around for the 8th telephone call to arrive. Inevitably we received a phone call from a young lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in Thorpe in the Glebe and filled petrol in a diesel trusty Mazda Navajo lease car in error. She was quite agitated apparently, telling me "I still cannot believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to fret, and also that such things sadly do happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a protected spot and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance off from the office, we could get to the lady without delay. The bad fuel was drained so she was able to return to the motel she was staying in. Even though we got thoroughly soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home relaxed and a lot less stressed. A misfuel correction in Nottinghamshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of the garden full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in Nottinghamshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a serious condition to handle in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can easily bring about idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both situations fairly expediently.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will likely be completely wet and useless.

I had appreciated a great evening cycling during my off day and felt delighted the following day as I set off to help a new family who were on holiday in Thorpe in the Glebe. They had stopped after adding the wrong fuel in their light blue Subaru Legacy, and the car was roughly half an hour's drive away. I got there at their car and smiled while I heard to the lady chastising her man for actually being so silly. "Exactly how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I tried to explain that this situation happens continuously in Nottinghamshire and that it is nothing at all to be anxious about, even so he still got his ear bent by his better half. Poor lad. Anyhow, I extracted the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. While watching them drive away I shouted so long and wondered what my missus would do to me if I did the same thing... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

This really was the graveyard shift. It was around sunrise and almost noone was about. It was fairly dead until now, and Paul and I were sitting about reading a couple of old papers. It was a rare peaceful hour in Nottinghamshire. Actually it was so peaceful that the instant the phone finally rang I jumped! The voice told me: "I just ended my overnight shift and stupidly put petrol in a khaki green Volkswagen Passat in error". I instructed him to let us know where exactly the vehicle was and we left, arriving in Thorpe in the Glebe less than an hour or so later. The fuel was removed from the vehicle and he said thank you for coming so promptly. As we were returning to base we spotted two women at the edge of the road who seemed like they suffered a flat. Obviously we got out and helped them change it, 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.
