The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to handle in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the fuel will contribute to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both cases fairly simply.

Remember however that if the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to parking spot we can reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

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.
