The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important situation to handle in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank is going to bring about idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both circumstances very simply.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and useless.

We will come to re-fill the car any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home.

Wrong Fuel in Car in TF10 Postcode - Sambrook Misfueling

What a great night of sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a rainy Tuesday and we were on my way to help an older sweetheart who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel luxury Renault Traffic in Sambrook. I'd been told she had left the filling station forecourt and pulled up on a rural lane along the way to pay a visit to her family. I popped the location into the Satnav and arrived within an hour or so. I got to the location and removed the wrong fuel out of the car. As I was doing it she explained, "I'm becoming relatively forgetful in my old age and forgot about the vehicle using diesel because I had only got it a week back after my other car, which I had used for about 30 years, finally gave up the ghost". I completed the job and she gifted me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. Such a pleasant Shropshire woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Sambrook

I am certainly not excessively excited about working weekends, and a while back was no different. I'd just come away from home after eating a fantastic Sunday roast cooked by the better half, and I was en route to sort out a man after he had put the wrong petrol in his cyan VW Golf III. He was only in Sambrook hence I was on scene rapidly. As I drove up behind the car and started work he told me "Praise the Lord! I had my attention on something else and didn't realise I had put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I brought on problems by running it?" I explained truth be told there shouldn't be any damage and that also I would personally get the wrong fuel drained as quickly as possible for him. As expected I removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle and filled up with the suitable fuel, and so another delighted motorist had the ability to carry on with his journey with no fuss. The guy did not stop saying thanks to me, and this is what helps make working on Sundays in Shropshire just a little bit less painful for me personally!

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.
