The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually an important situation to address in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel can easily bring about idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not addressed properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances quite expediently.

You should know that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Ahhh, that was a quality night of sleep! It was 7:00 am on a bright Wednesday and I was on my way to assist an older woman who put contaminated fuel in her diesel khaki green BMW Z8 in Hunts Hill. She informed us that she had driven away from the filling station and pulled up in a backwater lane on the way to visit her godchildren. I plugged the location into the TomTom and arrived inside 60 minutes. I arrived at the car and extracted the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing the drain she said to me, "I'm becoming fairly forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car using diesel because I had only just got it a week back after my previous car, which I'd used for in excess of twenty five years, eventually gave up the ghost". I completed the drain and she gifted me a peppermint and said thank you. Such a pleasant Buckinghamshire lady!

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.
