It was before ten pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it had not ceased pouring! Mark and I were relaxing there discussing the weekend's footy rankings, at the ready for the seventh call that day to come in. Inevitably we got a phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Henley and put petrol in her diesel modified Suzuki Grand Vitara rental by mistake. She was rather troubled apparently, telling me "I still can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, and that things like this can happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a protected spot and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles off from where we were, we were able to reach the customer quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the motel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive home satisfied and much less worried. Another job in Gloucestershire done well in my mind!

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel reservoir at the rear of your premises with out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Gloucestershire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a storage shed, if we can reach it, we can empty it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel can easily bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both circumstances rather easily.

Remember that as long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

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.
