She was rather distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I still cannot believe that I've ruined the car!

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir lying in the back of your garden with old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in Derbyshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a storage shed, provided that we can access it, we can empty it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be an important condition to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel can potentially result in idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances quite swiftly.

Take note that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

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.
