The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We've successfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important condition to take care of in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel will likely produce idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both situations pretty easily.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and useless.

I enjoyed a terrific afternoon cycling during my day off and felt satisfied the next day as I set off to assist a new couple away in Westlington. They had pulled over after inserting diesel into their spotless Ford Galaxie, and were around an hour's drive away. I emerged at their location and smiled while I listened to the wife berating her husband for actually being so stupid. "Just how could you possibly be able to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to tell her that this kind of thing comes to pass regularly in Buckinghamshire and that it's actually nothing at all to fret about, even so he still had an earful. Unlucky guy. Anyways, I removed all of the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the proper fuel. As they drove down the road I shouted so long and considered what my wife would ask me if ever I did the very same thing... I'd under no circumstances 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.
  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.
