The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a serious issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can potentially contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both cases very simply.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car Dorset - Petrol in Diesel Car Lower Strode

Now I'm not overly keen on doing the job on Sundays, and last week was the same. I'd just departed home filled with a lovely lunch cooked for us by the missus, and I was en route to sort out a man after he had put the wrong petrol in his raspberry red BMW M6. He was situated in Lower Strode and so I arrived with him rapidly. As I pulled up at the rear of the car and got busy draining he told me "Thank God! I foolishly had my thoughts on other things and did not grasp that I've put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I caused some problems through driving it?" I explained truth be told there shouldn't be harm and that also I'd personally get the wrong fuel drained quickly. Needless to say I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and filled it with the suitable fuel, and thus yet another pleased motorist was able to carry on with their trip without difficulty. He couldn't stop thanking me, and that is actually what tends to make carrying out work on Sundays in Dorset that tiny bit less painful to me!

A motorist who had sadly put unleaded in his diesel trusty Skoda Octavia phoned us for help at the Esso petrol filling station in Lower Strode. He thought it would be good to fill up before proceeding on to the nearby holiday park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put unleaded instead of diesel which probably wasn't a great way to begin to our vacation." It was no hassle by any means for our engineer to go along and perform the fuel drain. We hope everyone enjoyed their vacation.

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.
