The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can easily bring about idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both situations quite easily.

Bear in mind though that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.


Wrong Fuel in Car in GL10 Postcode - Oldend Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a good night's sleep! It was 7:30 am on a rainy Tuesday and we were off to assist an older lovely lady after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel boss' Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG in Oldend. She told us that she drove away from the filling station and was broken down in a country road en route to pay a visit to her family. I got her location punched in the TomTom and got there inside an hour. I turned up at the location and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the car. While I was doing it she told me, "I'm getting rather forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car using diesel since I had only bought it a week ago when my other car, which I had for about 25 years, inevitably stopped working". I got the drain completed and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks. What a delightful Gloucestershire lady!

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.
