Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious situation to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel may lead to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both situations pretty quickly.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

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.
