The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank can potentially trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not remedied fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations fairly easily.

Remember though that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

We're able to help to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home.

They can also handle any of the typical issues which can come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel in Car in RG20 Postcode - Hunts Green Misfueling

Just had a good night's sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a bright Tuesday and I was en route to assist an old sweetheart who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel sombre grey Lexus RX in Hunts Green. She informed us that she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and was stranded along a country road on the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I punched the location straight into the Satnav and arrived in less than an hour. I arrived at the car and extracted the wrong fuel out of the car. While I was working she told me, "I'm becoming rather forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle using diesel since I had only got it a week ago when my old one, which I'd used for over 30 years, eventually died". I finished the drain and she presented me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a lovely Berkshire lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Hunts Green

We not too long ago got a phone call from a man who put the incorrect fuel in his dad's Toyota FJ Cruiser in Hunts Green. He had conked out on the road. "After adding unleaded in my diesel car I didn't discover the problem till we conked out. You drained the wrong fuel from my car and got it running once again. I was happy with both your speed and your pricing". As you can imagine we were on-scene promptly and flushed the engine after flushing all the petrol from the diesel tank. When he arrived the fuel drainer said the motorist was fuming, but was happy after the fuel drain.

This really was what we call an unsociable time to be awake. It was about 3 in the morning and almost noone was stirring. It had become pretty dead up to now, and Brian and I were relaxing reading through a few old magazines. That was a rare tranquil moment in Berkshire. It was so quiet that when the telephone rang it made me start! The person told me: "I only just ended my overnight shift and incredibly poured petrol in a metallic red Volvo850". I instructed him to let us know where the car was located and we hit the road, ending up in Hunts Green no more than an hour later. The wrong fuel was taken out from the car and he thanked us for arriving so promptly. While we were returning to the depot we saw two women on the side of the highway who looked like they suffered a flat. So we pulled up and helped them change it, much to their elation.

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.
