The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol will often contribute to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances rather expediently.

Bear in mind however that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and unusable.

I'd had a perfect day cycling during my afternoon off and felt cheerful with myself the following morning as I was on the way to help a new couple who were on holiday in Hawford. They'd pulled over after filling diesel into their apple green Ford Club Wagon, and were about an hour away. I showed up at their car and laughed while I listened to the girl berating her hubby for actually being so daft. "Exactly how could you possibly manage to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this takes place on daily basis in Worcestershire and that it is absolutely nothing to be concerned about, nonetheless he in spite of everything had an earful by his missus. Unfortunate boy. In any case, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the proper fuel.

This was exactly an unsociable time to be up. It was close to 3:30am and nobody was stirring. It had become pretty quiet up to now, and me and John were loafing around looking through some old articles. It was a rare tranquil time in Worcestershire. It was so relaxing that when the telephone inevitably rang I leaped! The customer stated: "I ended my night shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in the sky blue Peugeot Partner by mistake". We asked him to inform us just where he was and we set off, getting to him in Hawford less than an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed from the engine. He thanked us profusely for coming out so rapidly. As we were going back to the depot we found two ladies at the edge of the street who appeared to have a flat. Obviously we pulled over to 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:

  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.
