The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious matter to handle in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol is going to produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both situations very easily.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will be totally water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car Lancashire - Petrol in Diesel Car Norcross

I'm not ever so hot for running Sundays, and a while back was the same. I'd just left the wife and kids after a wonderful dinner made for us by the missus, and I was en route to assist a man because he filled the wrong petrol in his brother's Chevrolet Corsica. He was located in Norcross and so it wasn't a long time before I reached him. Just as I drove up right behind the car and got busy draining he told me "Thank God! I foolishly had my mind on other things and didn't perceive I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I brought on problems through running it?" I revealed that generally there should not be any harm and that I'd personally remove the contaminated fuel at once. Needless to say I drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle and put in some correct fuel, and another delighted customer could carry on with his trip without the need for fuss. The gentleman did not stop thanking me, and this makes working on Sundays in Lancashire that little better for me personally!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Norcross - Fuel Rescue Norcross

A driver from Norcross with her kids in her diesel creamy white Lexus had filled her car with £45 of petrol at the BP filling station. She contacted us sobbing and genuinely distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel car before and did not know what would happen to her vehicle in doing so. We reassured her that everything should be ok and that she would be in action soon. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but while our technician began work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't ruined. She soon cheered up and was on her way saying, "I just can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Especially with the kids on board."

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.
