The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container laying at the rear of your garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Derbyshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious issue to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel will lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out when compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases quite expediently.

Remember though that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.

I had enjoyed a terrific evening cycling on my afternoon off and felt pleased the following morning as I set off to help a young family on holiday in Beeley. They'd broken down after inserting the wrong fuel in their stylish Chevrolet Corsica, and the car was around an hour's drive away. I got there at their car and smirked to myself as I heard to the lady telling her man off for being so foolish. "Exactly how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this happens frequently in Derbyshire and that it's absolutely nothing to get worried about, nevertheless he in spite of everything had an ear bashing. Poor lad. In any case, I extracted all the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some right fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved good bye and pondered on what her indoors would say to me if ever I made the exact same error... I would under no circumstances 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.
