Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel can result in idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases very simply.

Take note though that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to an automobile parking bay we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

Wrong Fuel in Car in BH21 Postcode - Gussage St Michael Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a great night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a warm Tuesday and I was off to assist an older lady who put the wrong fuel in her diesel white BMW 330 in Gussage St Michael. I'd been advised she had left the filling station forecourt and was broken down in a country road en route to visit her family. I plugged her location into the TomTom and arrived within an hour or so. I reached the destination and extracted the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. As I was doing it she explained, "Now I'm getting somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel as I'd only just acquired it several days back after my old car, which I had owned for more than 25 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I finished the job and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. What a pleasant Dorset woman!

Wrong Fuel Assist Gussage St Michael - Wrong Fuel in Car Gussage St Michael

I'd had a fantastic afternoon cycling during my day off and was feeling contented the next morning as I set out to aid a young couple away in Gussage St Michael. They had stopped after inserting the wrong fuel into their well worn Dodge Ram, and the car was approximately half an hour's drive away. I got there at their location and laughed to myself while I heard to the gal telling her partner off for turning out to be so daft. "Just how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I attempted to explain that this kind of thing comes to pass frequently in Dorset and that it's truly nothing to get worried about, but he all the same got his ear bent. Unfortunate guy. In any case, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some appropriate fuel. As they drove off I shouted so long and thought about what my wife would tell me in the event that I made the very same error... I'd personally 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.
