Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious situation to handle in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel will contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both circumstances fairly quickly.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to an automobile parking bay we are able to access the tanks and drain out the fuel.

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 VAT 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.
