The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel tank placed in the back of your garden containing unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial premises in East Sussex to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will likely produce idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both circumstances fairly expediently.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.


Wrong Fuel in Car in TN6 Postcode - Crowborough Misfueling

The owner of a clean white Volvo S60 was sorry that he had put unleaded in his diesel automobile when he got as far as the road and it coughed and stopped. "I've gone and put unleaded in my diesel car," is what he told us the very first time he called. In truth, when he first called us he said he'd research prices, but he phoned us back shortly because our rate and on-scene times were the best. Needless to say, our fuel drainer had him once again performing his deliveries within the time we had cited.

All of our engineers are skilled on the most current automobiles and their fuel systems. We go to in excess of 4,000 fuel drains on an annual basis in the UK (yes, there are that many people today who make the mistake - you are not on your own).

Wrong Fuel Assist Crowborough - Wrong Fuel in Car Crowborough

I had enjoyed a terrific evening cycling during the weekend and felt delighted the next day as I was en route to aid a new family away in Crowborough. They had conked out after filling the wrong fuel in their red Renault Scenic, and were around half an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and laughed to myself while I listened to the wife telling her husband off for actually being so confused. "How could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I tried to tell her that this kind of thing goes on on a regular basis in East Sussex and that it is absolutely nothing to be concerned about, however he yet still had his ear bent by his better half. Poor guy. Anyway, I drained out the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted bon voyage and pondered on what my missus would say to me if I did the very same thing... I would personally never hear the end of it!

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.
