The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to address in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel tank is going to contribute to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances quite expediently.

Remember however that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

I had enjoyed a wonderful day cycling during my off day and was feeling contented with myself the next working day as I set off to help a new couple holidaying in Oakwood. They pulled over after inserting diesel in their old Fiat 500, and the car was close to half an hour away. I showed up at their position and smirked while I heard to the gal chastising her husband for being so confused. "Just how could you actually manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this kind of thing occurs everyday in Cheshire and that it's in reality nothing at all to be anxious about, even so he all the same got an earful by his wife. I felt sorry for the guy. In any case, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some correct fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved good bye and thought about what my wife would do to me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I would never ever live it down!

This was what is called an unsociable hour to be up. It was around dawn and almost noone was around. It had become pretty quiet up to now, and Ray and I were loafing perusing a couple of old papers. This was an uncommon calm hour in Cheshire. Actually it was that peaceful that the moment my mobile inevitably rang it made me jump! The person said: "I just completed my evening shift and foolishly poured petrol in a matte black Volkswagen Eurovan in error". We told him to tell us where exactly the vehicle was and we set off, arriving in Oakwood less than half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the motor. He thanked us profusely for coming so promptly. As we were going back to the depot we saw two young ladies on the edge of the highway who appeared to have a puncture. So we pulled over and helped them change it, to their elation.

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:

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
