Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be an important situation to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol may well bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed properly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both circumstances very simply.
Take note that if ever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car West Coker
Now I am not ever too enthusiastic about doing the job Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I'd just left the family after eating a magnificent roast made for us by the wife, and I was off to help a gentleman who filled the incorrect fuel in his cream Land Rover Discovery. He was somewhere in West Coker therefore it wouldn't be long before I got to him. As I drove up behind the vehicle and got busy draining he told me "Praise the Almighty! I incredibly had my concentration on other stuff and didn't grasp that I've put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I inflicted any kind of damage through driving it?" I said that there probably should not be any problems and also I'd remove the contaminated fuel at once for him. Obviously I removed the fuel from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and then another happy customer was able to continue on their traveling without the difficulty. The man could not stop saying thanks to me, and this helps make operating on weekends in Somerset just that small bit easier for me personally!

She had filled petrol in her diesel apple green Mercedes-Benz CL-Class and, like many prior to her, imagined that she could simply fill up her vehicle with diesel and it'd run fine. The car was coughing and then it cut out when she got to the the front of her work. We promptly started on the fuel drain following her call and got it fixed inside an hour or so while she was at the office. She came outside later on and thanked us saying, "I'm extremely glad you sorted my vehicle."

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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
