The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank can potentially cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases fairly simply.

Take note though that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will be thoroughly wet and unusable.

I'd had a great evening golfing during my off day and felt delighted with myself the next day as I headed out to help a young couple on vacation in Winnington. They had pulled over after putting the wrong fuel in their brand new Volkswagen, and the car was around half an hour away. I arrived at their location and smiled as I heard to the lady berating her husband for turning out to be so stupid. "Just how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I wanted to clarify that this happens everyday in Cheshire and that it's actually nothing to get worried about, but he yet still had an earful by his better half. I felt sorry for the lad. Anyways, I removed the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed good-bye and pondered on what my wife would do to me if ever I made the same blunder... I'd personally never ever live it down!

We not long ago had a phone call about a guy who put the incorrect fuel in his brother's Citron Zara in Winnington. He had conked out on the street. "After inserting petrol in my diesel car I didn't realize the dilemma until we ground to a halt. You cleared the wrong fuel from my car and had it working again. I was pleased because of both your call-out time and your prices". It goes without saying that we were on-scene promptly and flushed the engine after flushing all of the unleaded from the diesel tank. The client was pleased as punch by the time we finished and he drove off satisfied.

This really was what is called the night shift. It was close to 3 in the morning and noone was around. It had been fairly quiet thus far, and me and Ray were sitting browsing some old newspapers. It was a rare tranquil moment in Cheshire. It was that tranquil that when the telephone rang it made me jump! The customer on the other end said: "I only just concluded my overnight shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in my light blue Mazda MX-3 by mistake". We told him to tell us exactly where he was and we headed out, getting to him in Winnington less than 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was extracted from the car and he said thanks for showing up so fast. As we were returning to the depot we found two women at the side of the road who looked like they suffered a puncture. As a result we got out and helped them change it, much to their delight.

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.
