The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important matter to handle in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can easily lead to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of properly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both situations very swiftly.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will be totally wet and useless.

Waste Fuel Disposal

We've been called out to quite a few domestic and business premises in Suffolk to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a storage shed, provided that we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.

What a good night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a bright Sunday and we were off to assist an old sweetheart after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel super Cadillac CTS in Mendham. She informed us that she had left the filling station and pulled up along a rural lane on route to see her family. I plugged her location straight into the Satnav and was with her within an hour. I turned up at the destination and removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was working she told me, "Now I'm getting quite forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car working with diesel because I had just bought it a short while back right after my former one, which I had owned for about twenty years, finally died on me". I got the job done and she gave me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. What a precious Suffolk woman!

Wrong Fuel Assist Mendham - Wrong Fuel in Car Mendham

I had a terrific evening hiking on my off day and felt cheerful the next day as I headed out to help a young couple on vacation in Mendham. They had stopped after filling petrol into their precious Jaguar X-Type, and were close to an hour's travel away. I emerged at their location and smirked while I heard to the lady chastising her spouse for being so stupid. "Exactly how could you possibly manage to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this takes place regularly in Suffolk and that it's truly absolutely nothing to get worried about, however he in spite of everything had an ear bashing. I felt sorry for the lad. Anyhow, I drained out all of the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some right fuel. As they drove away I waved goodbye and wondered what my missus would ask me if I did the very same thing... I'd 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 VA 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.
