Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually an important situation to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel can certainly contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both cases quite simply.

Take note that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be totally wet and useless.

I got her location plugged into the TomTom and got there in less than an hour. I reached the vehicle and removed the wrong fuel in the car car. As I was doing the work she told me, "Now I'm becoming rather absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel seeing that I'd only bought it a week ago right after my former one, which I owned for over thirty years, eventually broke down". I finished the drain and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. What a lovely Lincolnshire woman!

I enjoyed a great afternoon fishing on my off day and felt delighted with myself the following day as I set out to help a young family holidaying in Fordington. They'd pulled over after putting petrol into their matte black Volkswagen Golf III, and the car was approximately half an hour away. I turned up at their location and smiled while I listened to the girl chastising her partner for turning out to be so foolish. "How could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I tried to explain that this happens on daily basis in Lincolnshire and that it is nothing at all to get worried about, even so he yet still had an earful. Poor chap. Anyhow, I drained the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some proper fuel. Watching as they drove off I mouthed so long and pondered on what my missus would say to me if I made the very same error... I would 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.
