The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually an important condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel may bring about idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both situations pretty expediently.

Keep in mind though that any time the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car parking bay we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

I'd had a fantastic afternoon fishing during my holiday and was feeling contented the next working day as I set off to aid a young couple vacationing in Enborne. They had pulled over after adding the wrong fuel in their partner's Cadillac Sixty Special, and they were approximately an hour away. I emerged at their location and smirked to myself while I listened to the lady chastising her partner for being so daft. "Exactly how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I tried to tell her that this happens continuously in Berkshire and that it's truly absolutely nothing to be anxious about, but he all the same got an ear bashing by his wife. Unlucky boy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the right fuel. Watching them drive away I waved goodbye and pondered on what my missus would ask me if ever I made the same mistake... I would never ever live it down!

We reassured her that everything should be fine and that she would be back up and running quickly. When we arrived she was still distressed but as our technician began work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she recognised that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't ruined.

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.
