The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Wecock (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a complete Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to refill your car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at cost) to fill up your car. They will be able to take care of any of the standard problems which can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important matter to address in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can certainly trigger idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations fairly expediently.

Remember that if the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.


Wrong Fuel in Car in PO8 Postcode - Wecock Misfueling

What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a rainy Monday and we were off to help an older woman who had put petrol in her diesel metallic blue Kia Sportage in Wecock. I had been informed she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and broken down along a backwater road along the way to see her grandchildren. I plugged her location into the TomTom and got there within 60 minutes. I got to the vehicle and drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle. As I was working she said, "I have been becoming quite forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car working with diesel as I'd just acquired it a short while ago when my other one, which I'd owned for about twenty years, inevitably stopped working". I completed the job and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks. What a delightful Hampshire lady!

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.
