The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant matter to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can certainly cause idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both circumstances fairly simply.

Bear in mind that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

It truly was what we call the graveyard shift. It was close to sunrise and hardly anyone was about. It had become rather uneventful up to now, and me and Brian were sitting around looking through a number of old magazines. That was an uncommon peaceful time in Gloucestershire. Actually it was in fact so peaceful that the moment the telephone rang I jumped with surprise! The customer told me: "I've only just finished my evening shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in my metallic grey Cadillac Escalade". We told him to inform us where he was and we hit the road, getting to him in Hethelpit Cross no more than an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleared from the engine. He thanked us profusely for arriving so promptly. While we were returning to the depot we found two women on the side of the road who looked like they had a puncture. Accordingly we stopped to change it, to their elation.

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.
