Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a serious situation to address in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel may well cause idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both circumstances rather swiftly.

Be aware that whenever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Just had a quality night of sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a gloomy Sunday and I was off to assist an older woman who put the wrong fuel in her diesel spotless Jeep Commander in Potters Green. She informed us that she had left the filling station and was broken down in a country road along the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got her location plugged in the TomTom and was with her inside an hour or so. I got to the destination and drained the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she said, "I have been getting somewhat forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle using diesel seeing that I'd only just purchased it a couple of days back when my old one, which I used for in excess of twenty five years, inevitably died". I completed the drain and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. What a delightful East Sussex woman!

Wrong Fuel Assist Potters Green - Wrong Fuel in Car Potters Green

I had a terrific afternoon hiking on my day off and was feeling delighted with myself the following day as I set out to aid a new couple who were holidaying in Potters Green. They'd pulled over after adding the wrong fuel into their teal Volvo960, and were close to an hour's drive away. I arrived at their location and smirked while I heard to the woman chastising her spouse for actually being so foolish. "How could you conceivably manage to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this goes on all the time in East Sussex and that it's nothing to stress about, but he all the same had an ear bashing by his missus. Unlucky lad. Anyhow, I drained out the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some proper fuel. While watching them drive off I shouted farewell and pondered on what my wife would do to me if perhaps I made the exact same blunder... I would under no circumstances live it down!

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.
