The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Sudgrove (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a comprehensive Gloucestershire Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up your automobile in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to fill the car. They can also handle any of the most common issues which may go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will likely lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases rather quickly.

Take note that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

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.
