The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important situation to take care of in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol may well lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations fairly easily.

You should know that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.

Ahhh, that was a great night's sleep! 7:30 on a sunny Wednesday and we were off to help an older lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel precious Honda Accord in Millthorpe. She told us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and was broken down along a rural road along the way to pay a visit to her family. I got the location punched into the TomTom and arrived in less than an hour. I turned up at the destination and drained the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. As I was doing it she explained, "I'm becoming rather absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car using diesel as I had only just bought it a week back right after my previous car, which I'd owned for about 30 years, eventually stopped working". I got the drain completed and she offered me a toffee and said thanks a lot. Such a pleasant Lincolnshire woman!

A woman from Millthorpe with a full car of kids in her diesel green Cadillac CTS had put £30 of petrol at the Tesco service station. She contacted us crying and very worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel car before and didn't know what could happen to her vehicle because of it. We reassured her that all would be fine and that she would be ready to go quickly. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but while our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she recognised that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She soon enough cheered up and was up and running saying, "I just can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Specifically with the children in the back."

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.
