The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to handle in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can potentially produce idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both situations fairly quickly.

Be aware that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

Wrong Fuel in Car Lincolnshire - Petrol in Diesel Car Strubby

Now I'm not ever that excited about doing work on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I'd just departed home following a superb roast prepared for us by the wife, and I was off to sort out a fellow who had put the wrong petrol in his old Jaguar. He was situated in Strubby hence it wasn't a long time before I got to him. Just as I arrived at the rear of the vehicle and started work he said to me "Thank the Lord! I incredibly had my mind on other considerations and did not perceive I had put diesel in my petrol car. Have I inflicted some problems as a result of driving it?" I explained there probably should not be any problems and that also I would personally get the contaminated fuel drained at once for him. Obviously I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and put in the suitable fuel, and thus one more happy motorist was able to continue on his ride without any hassle. He couldn't stop thanking me, and this is actually what helps make working on weekends in Lincolnshire that little better in my opinion!

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.
