The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly an important condition to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel may contribute to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both cases fairly quickly.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Royston (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Hertfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up the car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and fill up your car. They can also handle the typical troubles that might go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Just had a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 on a bright Wednesday and we were on the way to help an old woman who put petrol in her diesel buff BMW M6 in Royston. I had been informed she had left the filling station and stranded in a backwater lane on route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I popped the location straight into the TomTom and arrived in less than an hour. I reached the location and removed the contaminated fuel from the car. Whilst I was working she said to me, "I am becoming relatively absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel as I had only got it a short while ago right after my former car, which I owned for more than twenty five years, eventually gave up the ghost". I completed the job and she offered me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. Such a delightful Hertfordshire lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Royston

Now I am not necessarily so excited about doing work on Sundays, and last week was no different. I had only just come away from home filled with a magnificent dinner cooked by the wife, and I was en route to sort out a gentleman who had filled the wrong petrol in his metallic green Cadillac XLR. He was stationed in Royston therefore I was with him soon. As I arrived right behind the car and got busy draining he said to me "Thank the Lord! I had my thoughts on other stuff and didn't realise I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I brought about any problems as a result of driving it?" I explained generally there probably should not be any kind of harm and that I'd drain the contaminated fuel at once. As expected I got the wrong fuel drained from the vehicle and filled it with some correct fuel, and so another satisfied customer could carry on with his trip without difficulty. The guy could not stop saying thanks to me, and that is what can make working on Sundays in Hertfordshire a little easier for me!

This was exactly what is called an unsociable time to be up. It was close to 3:30am and almost noone was stirring. It had become pretty dead up to now, and me and Ray were relaxing perusing some old newspapers. This was a rare tranquil hour in Hertfordshire. Actually it was so calm that the moment the telephone rang I jumped with surprise! The motorist on the phone told me: "I completed my night shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in the father's Dodge Avenger in error". We instructed him to inform us exactly where the vehicle was and we headed out, ending up in Royston less than half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the motor. He thanked us profusely for coming so quickly. As we were heading back home we saw two young ladies at the side of the street who seemed like they had a puncture. Obviously we got out to change it, much to their elation.

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.
