Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank may well produce idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both cases quite easily.

Take note though that if the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel.

Wrong Fuel Assist Knightcote - Wrong Fuel in Car Knightcote

I had a great evening fishing on my off day and was feeling satisfied with myself the following working day as I was en route to assist a young family vacationing in Knightcote. They'd stopped after adding diesel into their navy blue Ford Aspire, and were close to half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their car and smirked while I listened to the gal berating her spouse for actually being so daft. "Just how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this occurs constantly in Warwickshire and that it is absolutely nothing to worry about, and yet he yet still had an earful by his missus. Unlucky lad. Anyway, I drained all the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the right fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted farewell and considered what my wife would tell me if perhaps I made the same mistake... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!

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.
