The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant matter to address in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can potentially produce idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove when compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both situations quite expediently.

Be aware though that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

To be truthful, when he first phoned us he said he would like to comparison shop, but he phoned us back soon enough because our rate and arrival times were the best. Obviously, our technician had him back performing his deliveries within the period we'd cited.

Now I'm not actually too keen on carrying out work weekends, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I'd just left home after eating a lovely dinner made for us by the better half, and I was en route to help a guy because he filled the incorrect fuel in his brand new Hyundai Santa Fe. He was situated in Notgrove so it wasn't long before I reached him. Just as I arrived behind the car and got busy draining he told me "Praise God! I had my concentration on other things and failed to perceive I've put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I brought on any kind of damage by simply driving it?" I revealed generally there should not be any damage and that I would remove the fuel immediately. Obviously I drained the wrong fuel from the car and put in some correct fuel, and so yet another satisfied motorist had the ability to continue on their traveling without the need for fuss. He couldn't stop thanking me, and that is what can make working on Sundays in Gloucestershire just that tiny bit less painful for me!

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.
