Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious condition to take care of in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can potentially bring about idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations rather easily.

Bear in mind though that any time the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car in PR5 Postcode - Walton Summit Misfueling

Just had a great night's sleep! 7:30 am on a bright Monday and I was off to help an old sweetheart after she put petrol in her diesel classic BMW M5 in Walton Summit. I'd been advised she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and stranded on a country road en route to see her godchildren. I got the location punched straight into the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour or so. I turned up at the location and removed the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing the drain she said, "I have been getting relatively absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel because I had only got it a week ago right after my old one, which I had for in excess of twenty five years, eventually stopped working". I got the drain done and she presented me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. Such a pleasant Lancashire woman!

I had appreciated a wonderful evening golfing during my holiday and was feeling satisfied with myself the following working day as I set off to help a young family who were on vacation in Walton Summit. They'd pulled over after inserting diesel in their creamy white Volkswagen Eos, and they were roughly half an hour away. I emerged at their car and smiled while I heard to the gal telling her partner off for being so confused. "How could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this kind of thing goes on on daily basis in Lancashire and that it's nothing to stress about, however he still had his ear bent. Unfortunate chap. Anyway, I removed the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some right fuel. While they drove away I shouted hasta la vista and wondered what my missus would ask me if ever I made the exact same blunder... I'd personally never ever 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.
