Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious matter to deal with in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol will cause idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases quite easily.
Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Hurst Green
Now I'm certainly not too keen on carrying out work Sundays, and a week ago was no different. I'd just departed the family after eating a superb Sunday roast made for me by the wife, and I was on my way to help a guy who put the wrong petrol in his mint green Chrysler Grand Voyager. He was only in Hurst Green and so I arrived with him soon. As I drove up at the rear of the car and stepped out he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I had my attention on something else and didn't ascertain I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Have I created any damage as a result of driving it?" I explained that there should not be any kind of damage and that also I'd personally drain the fuel quickly for him. It goes without saying that I got the wrong fuel drained from the vehicle and filled it with the appropriate fuel, and thus one more happy motorist was able to continue their ride without the bother. He couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and that is what makes working on Sundays in Surrey that little easier for me!
Wrong Fuel Doctor Hurst Green - Fuel Rescue Hurst Green
This was exactly what is called an unsociable hour to be up. It was roughly sunrise and nobody was stirring. It had become pretty dead until now, and Ray and I were sitting around looking at some old newspapers. That was an uncommon restful time in Surrey. Actually it was so quiet that the moment my mobile finally rang it made me jump! The person stated: "I have completed my overnight shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in the diesel expensive Jaguar XJ in error". We asked him to inform us just where the vehicle was located and we headed out, ending up in Hurst Green under 30 minutes later. The fuel was cleared from the motor. He said thanks for coming out so quickly. As we were heading back to base we spotted two ladies on the side of the street who looked like they had a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled over and helped them change it, much to their elation.

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 VAT 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.
