Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to take care of in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel tank can potentially contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases rather simply.

You should know however that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car in TA5 Postcode - Over Stowey Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a good night's sleep! It was 7:30 am on a warm Saturday and we were on the way to help an old lovely lady after she had put petrol in her diesel husband's MINI Cooper Clubman in Over Stowey. She told us that she had left the filling station forecourt and broken down along a rural road en route to visit her godchildren. I got the location punched in the TomTom and was with her within an hour or so. I arrived at the location and extracted the wrong fuel out of the car. While I was working she said to me, "I'm becoming quite forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car working with diesel seeing that I'd only just acquired it a couple of days back right after my other car, which I had for over thirty years, eventually broke down". I got the drain done and she gave me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a pleasant Somerset lady!

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.
