Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant matter to deal with in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel will often result in idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out fully, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both situations quite simply.

You should know though that if the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

A young lady had conked out on a street, Horningsea having just put petrol in her diesel car. She was sobbing and very troubled as she had put £60 of petrol in her diesel car. As she contacted us we attempted to sooth her as best we could, encouraging her that everything would be fine.

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.
