The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important situation to handle in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank can trigger idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases quite swiftly.

Bear in mind however that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Canonbury - Fuel Rescue Canonbury

This was exactly the graveyard shift. It was close to 2:30am and noone was about. It was rather uneventful until now, and John and I were loafing around perusing a couple of old articles. That was an unusual quiet time in Islington. It was indeed so calm that the moment my mobile rang I jumped! The person on the opposite end told me: "I ended my evening shift and stupidly poured petrol in my diesel work's BMW Z4". I asked him to tell us where he was situated and we headed out, arriving in Canonbury half an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the motor. He said thank you for arriving so quickly. While we were going back home we noticed two young women on the side of the highway who seemed to have a flat. Obviously we pulled up to change it, 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.
