Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel is going to cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both circumstances very simply.

You should know however that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will be completely water-logged 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.

• 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.
