Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can potentially cause idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases quite quickly.

Be aware though that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

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.

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.
