The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel reservoir placed in the back of your premises full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in Gloucestershire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can get to it, we can empty it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important matter to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can potentially contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both circumstances very swiftly.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be completely wet and useless.

Ahhh, that was a great night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a rainy Sunday and I was on the way to help an older lovely lady who put petrol in her diesel khaki green Land Rover Range Rover Classic in Woodbridge. She informed us that she had left the filling station forecourt and pulled up along a country lane along the way to visit her godchildren. I got the location punched in the Satnav and got there within an hour or so. I arrived at the destination and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was working she told me, "I am becoming relatively forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car using diesel since I'd only just bought it a short while ago when my old one, which I'd used for about 25 years, inevitably broke down". I completed the job and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a precious Gloucestershire woman!

He admitted that he put petrol in his diesel car but then reckoned he would resolve the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We were on scene promptly, did the fuel drain and filled it up again with untainted Diesel. He said he would be absolutely sure to tell people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to get it drained immediately.

A customer from Woodbridge with her children in her diesel grey Honda Accord had filled her vehicle with £42 of petrol at the Tesco station.

We told her that all would be ok and that she would be back up and running quickly. When we got there she was visible upset but while our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she noticed that help was at hand and her car wasn't unfixable.

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.
