The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be an important situation to take care of in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel is going to contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both cases fairly simply.

Keep in mind though that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

A young lady from Rockhampton with her little ones in her diesel sunflower yellow Seat Exeo had filled her vehicle with £45 of petrol at the Co Op service station. She called us sobbing and extremely worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and did not know what could happen to her vehicle . We told her that the car should be ok and that she would be on the road quickly. When we arrived on scene she was still distressed but as our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she recognised that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't ruined.

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.
