The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Upper Coberley (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a comprehensive Gloucestershire Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up the car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump price) and refill your car or truck. They will be able to deal with the standard problems which could come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely an important situation to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel will likely result in idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both situations very quickly.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Upper Coberley

Now I am not ever overly interested in doing the job Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I had only just left the wife and kids after a fantastic roast prepared for me by the missus, and I was on my way to sort out a gentleman after he filled the incorrect fuel in his teal BMW X6 M. He was only in Upper Coberley so it wasn't long before I reached him. As I drove up at the vehicle and got out he told me "Thank the Almighty! I stupidly had my thoughts on something else and failed to perceive I'd put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I brought about harm by simply starting it?" I said that generally there probably should not be any problems and also that I'd personally get the fuel drained as quickly as possible for him. Obviously I got the wrong fuel drained from the vehicle and filled it with some appropriate fuel, and then one more happy motorist was able to continue on his journey without the need for hassle. The gentleman could hardly stop thanking me, and that tends to make working on weekends in Gloucestershire that little easier for me personally!

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.
