The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important condition to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel is likely to lead to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both situations quite quickly.

Take note though that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car in NR12 Postcode - Pollard Street Misfueling

Just had a good night's sleep! It was 7:00 on a rainy Saturday and I was off to assist an older woman who put the wrong fuel in her diesel boss' Jeep Wrangler in Pollard Street. I'd been advised she had left the petrol station and broken down along a country road en route to see her grandchildren. I got her location plugged into the TomTom and got there inside an hour. I turned up at the destination and drained the contaminated fuel from the car. As I was doing the drain she told me, "I have been becoming relatively forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle needing diesel because I'd only just got it a short while back right after my former car, which I had owned for more than twenty five years, eventually died". I completed the drain and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thank you. Such a precious Norfolk lady!

I had a terrific afternoon fishing on my afternoon off and felt contented the following morning as I headed out to assist a new family holidaying in Pollard Street. They'd pulled over after filling diesel into their father's BMW 5 Series, and they were about an hour away. I showed up at their position and smirked as I listened to the girl berating her spouse for being so stupid. "How could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I attempted to tell her that this kind of thing comes to pass constantly in Norfolk and that it's truly nothing to get worried about, however he yet still had an earful by his better half. Unfortunate boy. In any case, I removed all of the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. While they drove down the road I mouthed hasta la vista and pondered on what my wife would do to me if I did the same thing... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!

A lady from Pollard Street with a full car of children in her diesel rust red Nissan Murano had put £45 of petrol at the Shell petrol station. She phoned us crying and really distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and didn't know what might happen to her car . We told her that everything should be okay and that she would be up and running very quickly. When we arrived she was still distressed but as our engineer began work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she recognised that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't unfixable.

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.
