The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to address in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the fuel tank can easily trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both circumstances very expediently.

You should know though that if the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one is going to be completely wet and useless.


Wrong Fuel in Car in RG20 Postcode - Ecchinswell Misfueling

Just had a quality night of sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a warm Tuesday and I was off to assist an old sweetheart after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel yellow Vauxhall Insignia in Ecchinswell. I had been informed she had left the filling station forecourt and was broken down in a country road on the way to visit her godchildren. I popped the location straight into the TomTom and was on-scene inside 60 minutes. I reached the location and extracted the wrong fuel out of the car. As I was doing it she said, "I'm becoming relatively forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car using diesel because I'd just bought it a short while back because my former car, which I had used for about 30 years, finally died". I completed the drain and she presented me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. What a pleasant Hampshire lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Ecchinswell

Now I am not actually excessively inclined to doing the job Sundays, and a while back was the same. I'd only just left the wife and kids after a fantastic dinner cooked for us by the better half, and I was on my way to help a fellow who filled the incorrect fuel in his new-shape Nissan. He was situated in Ecchinswell thus I was with him quickly. As I drove up at the vehicle and stepped out he explained to me "Thank God! I incredibly had my mind on other things and failed to realise I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I brought about damage by driving it?" I explained truth be told there should not be any problems and that I would personally get the fuel drained as quickly as possible for him. Naturally I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and filled up with some appropriate fuel, and so another satisfied customer could continue on his journey with no hassle. The guy did not stop thanking me, and this is actually what can make carrying out work on Sundays in Hampshire just that little bit less painful to 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.
