Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant situation to address in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the fuel tank is going to result in idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations quite swiftly.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel Assist Ashford - Wrong Fuel in Car Ashford

I had a perfect evening hiking during the weekend and was feeling cheerful with myself the next working day as I set out to aid a new family who were vacationing in Ashford. They stopped after inserting the wrong fuel into their winter grey Nissan 350Z Roadster, and they were roughly an hour's drive away. I emerged at their position and smiled as I listened to the wife telling her partner off for turning out to be so daft. "Precisely how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this kind of thing happens quite frequently in Hampshire and that it is nothing to worry about, even so he in spite of everything had an ear bashing. Poor boy. At any rate, I drained out all the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching as they drove off I shouted so long and pondered on what my missus would ask me if I made the exact same error... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!

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.
