It was just before 8 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were sitting there talking over the recent tennis, waiting for the seventh fuel drain for the day to come in. Eventually we received the call from a girl on a business expedition who had arrived at the Tesco filling station in Syke and put the wrong fuel in a diesel yellow Suzuki Reno rental car by mistake. She was pretty distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I simply cannot believe I've messed up the vehicle! I am just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was running a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to worry, and that things like this often happen. She managed to relocate the car into a secure area and, as it was no more than a short distance off from the office, we were able to reach her right away. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to go home to the motel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away satisfied and much less apprehensive. Yet another misfuel correction in Greater Manchester well done in my mind!

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a serious situation to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel will produce idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases fairly swiftly.

Take note though that if the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will be totally water-logged and useless.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container in the back of your premises with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial properties in Greater Manchester to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a storage shed, as long as we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty 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.
