Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel will likely trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both circumstances very expediently.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial properties in Lincolnshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel in Car in LN9 Postcode - Hemingby Misfueling

What a quality night of sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Bank Holiday Monday and we were en route to assist an old lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel canary yellow Daewoo Nubira in Hemingby. I had been told she drove away from the petrol station and broken down on a country lane on route to visit her grandchildren. I popped her location in the Satnav and was with her within an hour or so. I turned up at the car and drained the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she said to me, "I have been getting relatively forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle using diesel since I had only bought it a short while back right after my old car, which I'd had for more than 30 years, inevitably died". I got the job done and she gifted me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. Such a delightful Lincolnshire woman!

Wrong Fuel Assist Hemingby - Wrong Fuel in Car Hemingby

I'd had a great day fishing on my day off and was feeling cheerful with myself the next morning as I headed out to help a young couple holidaying in Hemingby. They'd conked out after adding petrol into their metallic red Mitsubishi Endeavor, and they were roughly an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and smiled to myself as I heard to the gal telling her partner off for actually being so silly. "Precisely how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this situation occurs frequently in Lincolnshire and that it's really absolutely nothing to get worried about, however he all the same had his ear bent by his better half. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. In any case, I removed the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some proper fuel. While they drove away I mouthed bon voyage and thought about what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances 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 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.
