The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel may produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both circumstances rather expediently.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel reservoir lying at the rear of your premises full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business properties in Gloucestershire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

I got the job done and she presented me a toffee and said thanks. Such a delightful Gloucestershire lady!

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.
