Water and AdBlue Contamination

There are other factors that cause engine problems aside from filling your car with the wrong fuel. Such signs as insufficient power, irregular running, excessive smoke, and engine stalling may also be due to fuel that is contaminated with water. This is a serious problem that can totally deteriorate the fuel filters.

Putting AdBlue in the fuel tank can also make your vehicle to display similar signs. This additive which is used to purify the emissions of your engine should just be added through its own separate tank and automatic dosing system inbuilt into the vehicle rather than straight into a fuel tank of a diesel engine. If this is added into the fuel tank by somebody who knows nothing of AdBlue, the outcome would be bad for the engine.

Still, there's no need to fret. Whatever engine issue you have, whether contaminated fuel with water or AdBlue, we can absolutely help you. Through using the same process of draining and flushing the fuel system as used in solving the problem of wrong fuel in the car, we can let you get back on the road. Fuel filters can be possibly broken by water contamination in your fuel. We can fix it for you.

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.
