It was before 9 pm on a Tuesday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ray and I were seated discussing the rugby results, prepared for the next telephone call that day to come in. In due time we had a phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Tesco petrol station in Doddington and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel cobalt blue Fiat Punto hire car. The poor lady was pretty troubled it seemed, stating "I still can't believe I have destroyed the car! I am just so used to filling up my petrol car I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to fret, also that such things happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure area and, since it was no more than a short distance away from our van, we could get to the lady almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Although we got fairly drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive away relaxed and less apprehensive. One more misfuel correction in Shropshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container placed in the rear of your premises with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several domestic and business properties in Shropshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a shed, assuming that we can get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant matter to deal with in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can easily contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases fairly swiftly.

Remember that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

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.
