The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a serious situation to address in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can potentially bring about idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases rather simply.

Bear in mind that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car in LE16 Postcode - Welham Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a sunny Sunday and we were on my way to help an old lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel creamy white Mercedes E-Class in Welham. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and stranded in a country lane en route to visit her family. I popped the location in the TomTom and was with her within an hour or so. I arrived at the stricken lady and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing it she explained, "I'm getting relatively forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel because I had only bought it a few days ago after my former car, which I used for more than thirty years, eventually stopped working". I finished the job and she gave me a toffee and said thanks. What a precious Leicestershire woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Welham

We recently had a phone call from a man who put the incorrect fuel in his luxury Volvo in Welham. He had broken down on the road. "After putting unleaded in my diesel car I didn't notice the predicament till the time it broke down. You took the wrong fuel from my car and had it functioning once again. I was pleased due to both how fast you were and your value for money". It goes without saying that we appeared rapidly and purged the engine after draining the petrol from the diesel tank. On arrival our technician said the client was scowling, but was pleased after the fuel drain.

This was exactly an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was close to dawn and almost noone was stirring. It had been pretty quiet until now, and me and Brian were loafing around looking at a number of old magazines. It was an uncommon restful moment in Leicestershire. Actually it was indeed so peaceful that when the telephone finally rang it made me jump! The voice stated: "I have only just concluded my overnight shift and stupidly filled petrol in a father's Fiat Bravo in error". I instructed him to inform us where the vehicle was situated and we left, arriving in Welham no more than half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the car and he thanked us for arriving so fast. As we were coming back to the office we spotted two ladies on the side of the highway who looked like they had a puncture. Obviously we got out and helped them 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.
