The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can certainly produce idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed effectively, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both situations quite swiftly.

Keep in mind that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

We can come to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home.

Wrong Fuel Assist Greatford - Wrong Fuel in Car Greatford

I'd had a terrific day fishing on my off day and was feeling delighted the following day as I was on the way to assist a young family who were on holiday in Greatford. They'd pulled over after putting petrol in their silver Ford Transit Connect, and they were approximately an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and smirked to myself while I heard to the wife berating her man for actually being so confused. "Just how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this kind of thing goes on on a regular basis in Lincolnshire and that it is absolutely nothing to stress about, and yet he all the same got an earful by his wife. Unlucky guy. In any case, I drained all the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching as they drove off I waved hasta la vista and thought about what my missus would tell me if I made the very same blunder... I would personally never ever live it down!

It truly was what we call the graveyard shift. It was roughly 3 in the morning and hardly anyone was stirring. It had been quite dead until now, and me and Ryan were loafing about browsing some old newspapers. It was an unusual quiet hour in Lincolnshire. Actually it was in fact so peaceful that the instant my mobile finally rang it made me start! The customer explained: "I've just completed my evening shift and incredibly filled the wrong fuel in a white Dodge Ram". I got him to tell us where exactly the car was and we set off, reaching him in Greatford no more than an hour or so later. The fuel was taken out from the engine. He said many thanks for coming so promptly. As we were going back to the office we spotted two ladies on the side of the highway who looked like they had a flat. Accordingly we stopped to help them 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 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.
