It was around 5 pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a dry day, it hadn't stopped raining! Ryan and I were sitting there going over the weekend's sports rankings, at the ready for the 8th telephone call that day to arrive. In due time we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the Texaco petrol station in Little Malvern and filled petrol in her diesel raspberry red Austin Mini Cooper hire car in error. The unfortunate lady was very irritated apparently, saying "I still can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to worry, and also that these things sadly often happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a safe position and, as it was no more than a few miles off from where we were, we were able to get to her rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to go home to the motel she was lodging at. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth it to watch her drive away calm and much less worried. A job in Worcestershire done well in my mind!

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir laying in the back of your garden containing old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many private and business properties in Worcestershire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a garage, as long as we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important issue to take care of in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel may well result in idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out fully, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both circumstances fairly easily.

You should know that any time the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be completely water-logged and ineffective.

What a good night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a sunny Saturday and we were off to help an elder lovely lady who put petrol in her diesel compact Peugeot 309 in Little Malvern. She informed us that she had driven away from the filling station and pulled up in a rural lane on the way to visit her family. I punched her location in the TomTom and was with her in less than an hour. I turned up at the stricken lady and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the car. While I was doing the work she explained, "Now I'm getting quite absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car taking diesel seeing that I'd just acquired it a couple of days ago because my old car, which I'd had for about 25 years, inevitably died on me". I completed the job and she presented me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. Such a delightful Worcestershire woman!

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.
