The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important matter to address in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel is going to lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both circumstances rather simply.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Just had a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a gloomy Saturday and I was off to assist an old lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel bright white Lexus LS in Sileby. She told us that she drove away from the filling station forecourt and was stranded on a backwater road on the way to see her grandchildren. I plugged the location in the Satnav and was on-scene inside an hour. I got to the destination and removed the contaminated fuel in the car car. While I was doing the work she said, "I'm getting somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the car taking diesel because I had just purchased it a couple of days back right after my old car, which I'd owned for over 30 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I got the job done and she gave me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a delightful Leicestershire woman!

I had a fantastic afternoon fishing on my off day and felt pleased with myself the following day as I was en route to assist a new couple who were on vacation in Sileby. They broken down after inserting diesel into their brother's Seat Leon, and they were about half an hour's drive away. I emerged at their location and laughed to myself as I listened to the girl berating her hubby for actually being so silly. "Precisely how could you conceivably manage to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this kind of thing occurs regularly in Leicestershire and that it's nothing at all to be concerned about, nonetheless he all the same got an earful by his better half. I felt sorry for the chap. Anyway, I drained out all the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the correct fuel. While they drove off I shouted so long and considered what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I did the same thing... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!

This was most definitely the graveyard shift. It was around 3:30 in the morning and almost noone was around. It had become pretty uneventful up to now, and Mark and I were loafing around perusing some old papers. It was a rare restful moment in Leicestershire. Actually it was indeed so quiet that the moment my mobile rang it made me start! The voice on the opposite end told me: "I have just ended my evening shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in a diesel mustard yellow Cadillac XLR-V by mistake". I asked him to tell us where the vehicle was situated and we left, reaching him in Sileby not as much as an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle and he said thank you for coming out so fast. While we were coming back home we saw two young women at the edge of the street who appeared to have a puncture. Accordingly we got out to change it, much to their delight.

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.
