Other Services

Did you know that we also give other services?

Such contaminated fuels need to be disposed of by a professional and not by just anyone since they can degrade the surroundings and even pollute local water supplies. We are also experts in this industry and are authorized by the Environment Agency that we have the equipment to utilize in getting rid of it, both properly and legally.

Dumping contaminated fuel is a separate service we offer to our clients, either commercial or private companies.

We will then do the rest of the job in accordance to the environmental law specified.

AdBlue and Water Contamination

If your fuel system has water in it, irregularities of behavior will quickly be shown by your engine. It will make it display similar symptoms as the wrong fuel in a car, such as low power, irregular running, production of too much smoke and even stalling. But unlike wrong fuel, it can make your fuel filters require replacement.

A diesel-powered vehicle may also exhibit such symptoms when someone puts AdBlue directly into the vehicle’s fuel tank. It should be added to the vehicle through the dosing system of a separate built-in tank.

In these situations, we can provide the services of draining the fuel, flushing the engine and refilling with clean fuel, just like in the case of filling your tank with the incorrect fuel. So, no matter what the cause we can get you on your way. Furthermore, we can replace the fuel filters damaged by water.

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.
