The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important matter to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the fuel tank may well produce idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both situations rather expediently.

Bear in mind however that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

A customer from Alconbury with a full car of children in her diesel company's BMW X5 M had put £50 of petrol at the Texaco service station. She phoned us weeping and extremely worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel car before and did not know what might happen to her car in doing so. We told her that the vehicle would be fine and that she would be in action quickly. When we arrived she was visible distressed but as our technician got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she saw that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked. She soon enough cheered up and was up and running saying, "I really can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Specifically with the children on board."

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.
