The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to address in a vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel will trigger idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases fairly simply.

Remember however that any time the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

I had a great evening hiking on my holiday and felt delighted the following day as I was en route to help a young couple on holiday in Whyteleafe. They'd pulled over after putting diesel into their well worn Jeep Compass, and they were around an hour's travel away. I got there at their car and smirked while I heard to the wife telling her spouse off for turning out to be so daft. "How could you possibly be able to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this occurs quite frequently in Croydon and that it is nothing to worry about, but he all the same had his ear bent. Unfortunate guy. Anyways, I extracted all of the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed good bye and considered what my wife would ask me if I made the very same blunder... I would personally never ever live it down!

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.
