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 or diesel, can be a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank will cause idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both cases quite expediently.

This was most definitely the night shift. It was close to 2:30am and nobody was around. It had been pretty quiet up to now, and Brian and I were sitting about browsing some old articles. That was a rare calm moment in Dorset. Actually it was indeed that calm that the instant the telephone inevitably rang it made me start! The customer on the other end said: "I have just completed my night shift and stupidly put petrol in a spotless BMW 7 Series by mistake". We told him to tell us where exactly he was situated and we hit the road, getting to him in Bowden half an hour later. The wrong fuel was removed from the engine.

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 VA 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.
