The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Barlestone (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a comprehensive Leicestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and refill your car. They can also handle the standard problems which can come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant condition to address in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol will likely result in idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both situations pretty easily.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and unusable.

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.
