The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank may well bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases very quickly.

Bear in mind though that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will probably be totally water-logged and unusable.

We can easily come to refill the car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill the car. They will be able to handle any of the normal troubles that could accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel in Car in CM22 Postcode - Howe Green Misfueling

Just had a quality night's sleep! 7:30 am on a bright Tuesday and we were off to help an old woman after she put petrol in her diesel apple green Chevrolet Suburban in Howe Green. I'd been informed she had left the filling station forecourt and stranded on a country lane on the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I popped her location straight into the Satnav and arrived in less than an hour or so. I arrived at the destination and extracted the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing it she explained, "Now I'm getting fairly forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle using diesel as I had only purchased it a week back right after my other one, which I'd had for about 30 years, eventually stopped working". I got the job completed and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my work. What a delightful Essex lady!

Wrong Fuel Assist Howe Green - Wrong Fuel in Car Howe Green

I had a fantastic afternoon golfing on my off day and was feeling cheerful with myself the next morning as I set out to assist a young family who were on holiday in Howe Green. They conked out after inserting diesel into their baby blue Chevrolet Malibu, and they were roughly half an hour's travel away. I turned up at their location and smiled to myself while I heard to the lady telling off her hubby for actually being so silly. "How could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I attempted to explain that this comes to pass frequently in Essex and that it is nothing at all to get worried about, and yet he yet still had his ear bent by his missus. Unfortunate chap. In any case, I removed the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. Watching them drive off I mouthed goodbye and pondered on what my missus would tell me if perhaps I did the same thing... I would personally never hear the end of it!

We carried out a wrong fuel removal job near a beautiful residence in Howe Green recently. "I put petrol in my diesel car and managed to almost get home when my car quit."

Wrong Fuel Doctor Howe Green - Fuel Rescue Howe Green

A customer from Howe Green with a full car of children in her diesel clean white Mazda B-Series had filled her car with £50 of petrol at the BP filling station. She phoned us weeping and extremely upset as she had never wrong fueled previously and didn't know what could happen to her vehicle in doing so. We reassured her that everything would be okay and that she would be back in action very quickly. When we got there she was visible upset but as our technician began work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she discovered that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't ruined. She soon enough brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I really can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my car! Particularly with the children in the back."

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.
