The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious matter to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel will likely bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both circumstances quite swiftly.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Parwich - Fuel Rescue Parwich

This was exactly the night shift. It was roughly dawn and noone was about. It had been fairly uneventful so far, and me and Mark were loafing around perusing a few old magazines. That was an uncommon tranquil moment in Derbyshire. It was indeed so calm that when the telephone inevitably rang it made me start! The person on the opposite end said: "I have just concluded my night shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in my matte black BMW 330 in error". We instructed him to inform us where exactly he was and we set off, reaching him in Parwich under half an hour later. The wrong fuel was extracted from the car and he said thanks a lot for showing up so fast. As we were going back to the depot we spotted two women on the side of the street who appeared to have a puncture. Accordingly we pulled up to 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.
