The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a serious issue to address in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel is likely to contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both situations fairly expediently.

You should know however that as long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

We can easily come to re-fill the car any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home.

They will be able to deal with the most common troubles that may go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car North Yorkshire - Petrol in Diesel Car Knayton

We fairly recently had a call about a businessman who had put the incorrect fuel in his metallic grey Volkswagen Scirocco in Knayton. He had conked out on the street. "I couldn't believe how rapid you guys were in getting an engineer out to help me when I mistakenly filled my car with the wrong fuel. Thank you ever so much". Needless to say we got there punctually and flushed the engine after draining all of the unleaded from the diesel tank. The customer was smiling again by the time we finished and he drove away satisfied and content.

A lady from Knayton with her youngsters in her diesel work's Nissan JUKE had filled her car with £30 of petrol at the Co Op petrol station. She phoned us weeping and really worried as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel before and did not know what could happen to her vehicle because of it. We assured her that everything should be alright and that she would be up and running very quickly. When we arrived on scene she was still upset but while our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she discovered that help was at hand and her car wasn't unfixable.

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.
