Issues in the fuel system may not only because of incorrect fuel in the vehicle. Water can contaminate your fuel system too, causing the engine to stop or run abnormally. The symptoms stipulated above will also be seen in your engine even though it is just water contamination to either petrol or diesel run engine.
AdBlue is a diesel system additive that makes the engine run with less pollution. But it can only be utilized by people who know how to use it properly. Or else, it would cause troubles and problems to your car. The wrong usage can, however, be avoided through the use of its own AdBlue tank and filler cap. But it is very possible to encounter wrong AdBlue usage, especially if the additive is added directly to the fuel or added by somebody who is not aware of the procedure.
Signs of AdBlue contamination also include the vehicle not moving perfectly and eventually stopping. Luckily, we are here for you. Our technicians are experts in this field too in addition to troubles dealing with water contamination and wrong fuel in the car.

Just had a great night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a warm Tuesday and we were on the way to assist an older sweetheart who put contaminated fuel in her diesel Hainworth Shaw. I had been told she had left the petrol station forecourt and broken down in a backwater road en route to pay a visit to her family. I plugged the location into the Satnav and was with her within an hour or so. I reached the vehicle and extracted the wrong fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing the work she said, "I have been getting rather forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car using diesel as I had just purchased it several days ago when my old one, which I had had for about twenty years, inevitably died". I got the drain completed and she presented me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. What a delightful woman!

- 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.
