The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important condition to handle in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank will likely cause idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both circumstances fairly swiftly.

You should know though that so long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and ineffective.

It truly was what we call an unsociable time to be awake. It was close to sunrise and noone was around. It was rather quiet thus far, and John and I were relaxing looking at some old newspapers. This was an unusual quiet moment in Lancashire. It was in fact so calm that the instant the telephone finally rang it made me start! The person told me: "I've only just finished my overnight shift and stupidly filled petrol in the dark blue BMW X6 M by mistake". I got him to let us know just where he was and we hit the road, arriving in High Field less than an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned from the engine. He said thank you for showing up so fast. As we were returning home we saw two girls at the edge of the highway who seemed to have a puncture.

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 VA 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.
