It was close to seven pm on a Friday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were seated there going over the recent footy, waiting around for the 6th job that day to arrive. In due time we received the call from a lady on a company excursion who had pulled into the Tesco filling garage in Four Mile Elm and filled petrol in a diesel brand new Citron Zara rental car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was somewhat irritated apparently, stating "I simply can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to fret, plus that these things sadly often happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a secure spot and, as it was only a short distance from the office, we were able to arrive at her quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the motel she was lodging at. Even though we got really wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away contented and not so anxious. One more fuel drain in Gloucestershire well done in my mind!

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel tank laying at the back of your garden with out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and business properties in Gloucestershire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant situation to handle in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel will bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances quite expediently.

Remember however that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

He told us; "I can't believe I put the wrong fuel in my car. And the man who came out to carry out the fuel drain was extremely excellent - he did not make me feel ridiculous."

Wrong Fuel Assist Four Mile Elm - Wrong Fuel in Car Four Mile Elm

I'd had a terrific afternoon golfing on my afternoon off and felt satisfied with myself the following morning as I set out to aid a young family who were on vacation in Four Mile Elm. They had broken down after inserting the wrong fuel in their wife's Mercedes R-Class, and they were close to half an hour away. I showed up at their position and smiled while I listened to the wife chastising her partner for actually being so daft. "Just how could you actually manage to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to tell her that this takes place frequently in Gloucestershire and that it's actually absolutely nothing to be anxious about, and yet he yet still had an earful by his better half. I felt sorry for the boy. Anyways, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted farewell and considered what my missus would ask me if perhaps I did the same thing... I would never ever 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.
