Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel tank can produce idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases quite easily.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel Assist Atherington - Wrong Fuel in Car Atherington

I had appreciated a terrific evening golfing during my holiday and was feeling contented the following working day as I set off to aid a new family who were vacationing in Atherington. They had stopped after inserting diesel in their modern Volvo XC70, and they were around half an hour's travel away. I got there at their position and smirked while I heard to the lady berating her man for being so silly. "Precisely how could you even find a way to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to tell her that this comes to pass on a regular basis in West Sussex and that it is nothing to worry about, even so he all the same got an earful. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some proper fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed farewell and thought about what her indoors would do to me if perhaps I made the same blunder... I would never ever live it down!

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.

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.
