Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious situation to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel will cause idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations very swiftly.

Keep in mind that as long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Just had a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a bright Wednesday and we were en route to help an old lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel dad's Lexus in St Michaels Hamlet. I'd been informed she had driven away from the petrol station and was broken down along a country lane on the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I plugged her location straight into the Satnav and was with her inside 60 minutes. I reached the location and removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the work she explained, "I'm getting relatively absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle needing diesel seeing that I had only bought it several days back because my old one, which I'd owned for more than 30 years, finally died on me". I got the drain done and she gave me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. Such a precious Merseyside lady!

• 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 VAT receipt.
