The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to address in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel can bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both cases fairly quickly.

You should know though that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel container sitting at the back of your premises containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in Oxfordshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even numerous containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can drain it for you.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.

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.
