Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to handle in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue inside your fuel may lead to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both circumstances very quickly.
Take note though that whenever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Curbridge
It's no fun breaking down in a automobile filled with the incorrect fuel halfway down the street. One of our most recent customers who put petrol in his diesel car (daughter's Fiat Punto) in Curbridge suffered from exactly that type of nightmare: "Your engineer helped me to move my motor from the live lane. He had it drained and had it working again within a half-hour. Highly recommended."

This was most definitely the graveyard shift. It was about 2 in the morning and almost noone was about. It had been pretty uneventful up to now, and John and I were sitting about browsing a number of old articles. That was a rare quiet hour in Hampshire. Actually it was in fact so quiet that the instant my mobile inevitably rang I jumped with surprise! The motorist on the other end told me: "I have finished my night shift and foolishly poured petrol in a wife's VW Beetle by mistake". I asked him to let us know where the vehicle was and we set off, getting to him in Curbridge less than half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned from the vehicle. He said many thanks for arriving so quickly. As we were returning home we noticed two girls on the side of the highway who seemed like they had a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled over to change it, much to their delight.

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.

- Engine coughing or starting to splutter
- Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
