Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel can certainly bring about idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both cases quite easily.

You should know though that any time the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've successfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

I had a perfect day golfing during my day off and felt delighted with myself the following working day as I was en route to help a new family who were away in Crawshawbooth. They'd conked out after adding diesel into their compact Cadillac Fleetwood, and were roughly half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and laughed to myself as I heard to the woman telling her man off for being so stupid. "Just how could you conceivably find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to clarify that this problem comes to pass everyday in Lancashire and that it's nothing to be concerned about, however he still had his ear bent by his better half. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. In any case, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. Watching them drive off I waved so long and wondered what her indoors would do to me if I did the same thing... I would personally never hear the end of it!

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 VA 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.
