The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually an important matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel will likely bring about idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both situations rather easily.

Take note however that if the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

Wrong Fuel Assist Northwood - Wrong Fuel in Car Northwood

I had appreciated a perfect evening cycling on my off day and felt cheerful the next morning as I set off to assist a young couple on vacation in Northwood. They'd conked out after adding petrol in their dirty red Ford Focus, and were roughly an hour's travel away. I emerged at their car and smiled while I heard to the gal telling off her husband for actually being so foolish. "Exactly how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this kind of thing occurs all the time in Shropshire and that it is nothing to be anxious about, but he all the same got his ear bent. I felt sorry for the boy. Anyways, I removed all the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive away I mouthed good bye and thought about what my wife would tell me in the event that I made the same blunder... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!

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.
