Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important matter to handle in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol will bring about idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both situations rather quickly.

You should know that if the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel Assist Wellington Heath - Wrong Fuel in Car Wellington Heath

I had a fantastic day cycling on my off day and was feeling contented the following morning as I set off to help a young family on holiday in Wellington Heath. They'd conked out after putting diesel in their son's Dodge Avenger, and the car was close to half an hour away. I arrived at their car and smirked as I listened to the wife telling her spouse off for actually being so daft. "Just how could you actually manage to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this situation takes place constantly in Herefordshire and that it's really absolutely nothing to worry about, but he yet still had an earful by his missus. Poor lad. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the right fuel. Watching them drive away I waved goodbye and thought about what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I made the same error... I would never live it down!

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.
