The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can easily lead to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both situations rather easily.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night of sleep! It was 7:30 am on a bright Tuesday and I was en route to help an old woman after she had put petrol in her diesel sky blue Vauxhall Astra in Clanville. She informed us that she had left the petrol station and was stranded on a country road on route to visit her godchildren. I punched her location into the TomTom and got there in less than 60 minutes. I arrived at the vehicle and removed the contaminated fuel from the car. While I was working she explained, "I am becoming quite absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle needing diesel as I had just purchased it a few days ago because my former one, which I had owned for more than 30 years, finally stopped working". I completed the job and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. What a delightful Somerset woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Clanville

I'm certainly not overly interested in doing the job weekends, and a while back was the same. I'd just come away from home following a fantastic roast made by the wife, and I was en route to help a gentleman after he filled the incorrect petrol in his partner's Mercedes-Benz CL-Class. He was only in Clanville so I was on scene rapidly. As I arrived behind the car and started work he explained to me "Praise the Almighty! I foolishly had my attention on other considerations and failed to grasp that I'd put diesel in my petrol car. Is it possible I caused damage as a result of running it?" I determined there probably should not be any damage and that also I would personally drain the wrong fuel as quickly as possible for him. It goes without saying that I removed the wrong fuel from the car and put in the correct fuel, and yet another happy customer could carry on with his ride without any hassle. He could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and this is what can make working on Sundays in Somerset a little easier in my opinion!

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.
