Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant condition to handle in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel is likely to result in idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations pretty swiftly.

Keep in mind though that whenever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and useless.

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.
