The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the storage and remove the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to handle in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank will often contribute to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances quite quickly.

You should know that as long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

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.
