The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!

Run out of fuel in Bassett Green (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Hampshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill your vehicle if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at cost) to fill your vehicle. They can also take care of any of the standard troubles which could come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be an important issue to take care of in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel may well contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both situations quite simply.

You should know that as long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will probably be totally wet and useless.

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.
