The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question an important matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel will likely lead to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases pretty easily.

You should know that if the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've successfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.

Ahhh, that was a great night of sleep! 7:00 am on a bright Bank Holiday Monday and we were en route to assist an elder lady after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel mom's Jaguar XJ in Brooklands. She informed us that she had left the filling station and stranded on a backwater road on route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I got her location punched straight into the Satnav and got there within 60 minutes. I turned up at the destination and removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle. As I was doing the work she explained, "Now I'm becoming rather absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle needing diesel as I had just purchased it a week back after my old car, which I'd used for more than 30 years, eventually died". I got the job done and she gave me a toffee and said thanks a lot. Such a lovely Wandsworth woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Brooklands

Now I'm not actually that interested in carrying out work Sundays, and a week ago was no different. I'd only just departed home following a fantastic dinner made for us by the missus, and I was en route to assist a man because he filled the incorrect petrol in his friend's Toyota Highlander. He was stationed in Brooklands therefore I arrived there before long. As I arrived right behind the vehicle and stepped out he explained to me "Praise God! I incredibly had my thoughts on other stuff and did not realise I'd put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I brought about harm because of starting it?" I explained generally there shouldn't be any kind of harm and that I would remove the contaminated fuel quickly for him. It goes without saying that I drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and filled up with the suitable fuel, and another pleased customer was able to continue their ride without the difficulty. The gentleman did not stop saying thanks to me, and this makes earning a living on weekends in Wandsworth just a little bit better to me!

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.
