Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a significant issue to address in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel tank may bring about idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both cases rather expediently.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and ineffective.

It truly was an unsociable time to be on the road. It was close to sunrise and hardly anyone was stirring. It was rather dead thus far, and me and Ryan were sitting about perusing some old papers. It was an uncommon quiet moment in Derbyshire. Actually it was in fact so calm that the moment my mobile finally rang it made me jump! The motorist on the phone said: "I completed my night shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in a diesel well worn Porsche 911". I asked him to tell us exactly where the car was and we set off, reaching him in Flaxholme no more than 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was removed from the car and he said thank you for showing up so quickly. While we were going back home we saw two young ladies at the side of the street who seemed to have a puncture. Accordingly we pulled up to 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:

    • 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.
