We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important issue to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol will often produce idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations fairly easily.

Remember however that any time the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car in SY4 Postcode - Horton Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a rainy Saturday and I was off to help an elder lovely lady after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel rugged Hyundai in Horton. She informed us that she had left the petrol station and was pulled up along a backwater lane on the way to pay a visit to her family. I got her location plugged into the TomTom and arrived within an hour. I turned up at the location and removed the wrong fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing the drain she told me, "I am becoming rather forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car taking diesel because I'd only got it a short while back right after my other car, which I owned for about thirty years, finally gave up the ghost". I got the job completed and she presented me a toffee and said thanks a lot. Such a lovely Shropshire lady!

Wrong Fuel Assist Horton - Wrong Fuel in Car Horton

I had appreciated a perfect evening cycling during my holiday and was feeling pleased the following day as I headed out to aid a young couple who were vacationing in Horton. They'd pulled over after adding diesel in their buff Vauxhall Bedford, and were close to an hour away. I got there at their location and laughed as I heard to the girl telling her man off for actually being so silly. "How could you possibly find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to explain that this situation occurs regularly in Shropshire and that it's in reality nothing to be anxious about, even so he yet still had an ear bashing by his missus. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. In any case, I cleaned up and removed all the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved hasta la vista and thought about what her indoors would ask me in the event that I made the very same blunder... I would personally never live it down!

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.
