It was about 8 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a dry afternoon, it had not given up on pouring! Ray and me were sitting talking about the recent footy results, ready for the seventh telephone call of the day to come in. Eventually we received a phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Leigh Park and put petrol in her diesel maroon Cadillac XLR-V rental car in error. She was pretty affected by the sounds of it, stating "I can not believe that I've ruined the car! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that these things unfortunately can happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a protected position and, seeing as it was only a few miles off from where we were, we were able to get to the lady almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she could go home to the motel she was lodging in. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off calm and much less stressed. Another misfuel correction in Hampshire well done in my books!

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your garden containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and commercial properties in Hampshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a garage, if we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant issue to deal with in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will trigger idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases pretty simply.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

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.
