The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be an important condition to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can easily bring about idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both circumstances pretty simply.

Remember though that in the event that the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a car parking spot we will be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've successfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

Ahhh, that was a great night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a warm Tuesday and we were off to help an older lovely lady after she had put petrol in her diesel mint condition Mazda323 in Scotches. I had been advised she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and was stranded along a rural road en route to pay a visit to her family. I got the location punched into the TomTom and was with her within an hour or so. I turned up at the stricken lady and extracted the wrong fuel out of the car. While I was doing the work she explained, "Now I'm getting somewhat absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle using diesel because I'd only bought it a couple of days back because my former car, which I'd owned for over thirty years, eventually stopped working". I finished the job and she gifted me a toffee and said thank you. What a delightful Derbyshire woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Scotches

I'm not actually too interested in doing work on weekends, and last week was no different. I'd just departed the family filled with a fantastic lunch cooked for me by the wife, and I was on my way to help a fellow who had put the wrong petrol in his mom's Volkswagen Golf III. He was situated in Scotches and so it wasn't long before I reached him. Just as I arrived behind the vehicle and got out he explained to me "Praise God! I incredibly had my mind on other stuff and failed to ascertain I'd put diesel in my petrol car. Have I brought about any kind of problems by starting it?" I stated that truth be told there shouldn't be damage and that also I'd personally get the fuel drained immediately for him. Naturally I got the fuel drained from the car and filled it with the correct fuel, and thus one more satisfied customer could continue their traveling without the bother. He could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that is exactly what tends to make working on weekends in Derbyshire just a little bit better in my opinion!

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.
