Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel tank sitting at the rear of the garden containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business premises in Warwickshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to access it, we can drain it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important issue to take care of in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel may well cause idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances quite expediently.

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

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.
