The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a significant situation to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol will likely produce idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances pretty easily.

Be aware though that any time the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container in the back of your premises with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in Dorset to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a garage, if we can reach it, we can drain it for you.

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 VA 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.
