The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a serious matter to deal with in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel can lead to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both circumstances very expediently.

You should know that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

Wrong Fuel in Car Lincolnshire - Petrol in Diesel Car Irby upon Humber

Now I am not necessarily very excited about doing the job Sundays, and the other day was no different. I'd only just left the family after eating a superb lunch prepared for us by the missus, and I was on my way to sort out a fellow after he had put the incorrect fuel in his blue Dodge Ram. He was only in Irby upon Humber so I was there quickly. As I pulled up right behind the car and got busy draining he explained to me "Thank the Almighty! I had my thoughts on something else and didn't grasp that I've put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I caused some damage as a result of driving it?" I said that truth be told there probably should not be any kind of problems and also that I'd personally remove the wrong fuel immediately. As expected I drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and put in the appropriate fuel, and so yet another satisfied customer could carry on with their trip with no bother. He couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and that is what tends to make operating on weekends in Lincolnshire a little easier 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.
