The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important condition to handle in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol is likely to produce idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both circumstances rather easily.

Bear in mind though that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

We can get out to refill your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your automobile. They will take care of any of the most common troubles that could come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Kislingbury - Wrong Fuel in Car Kislingbury

I had appreciated a great day golfing on my off day and was feeling contented the following morning as I headed out to assist a new family who were holidaying in Kislingbury. They had stopped after inserting diesel into their uncle's Lexus LS, and they were close to an hour's drive away. I got there at their location and smirked while I heard to the wife telling her partner off for being so confused. "Precisely how could you actually find a way to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to tell her that this happens on daily basis in Northamptonshire and that it's actually nothing at all to get worried about, but he all the same got an earful by his missus. I felt sorry for the lad. Anyways, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed hasta la vista and thought about what my missus would do to me in the event that I made the same error... I'd under no circumstances live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Kislingbury

I'm not excessively inclined to working Sundays, and a week ago was the same. I had just left the family after a tasty Sunday roast prepared for me by the wife, and I was off to deal with a gentleman after he put the incorrect fuel in his khaki green Honda Civic GX. He was only in Kislingbury therefore it wasn't long before I got to him. As I drove up behind the vehicle and got out he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I stupidly had my concentration on other things and did not ascertain I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it likely I caused any problems as a result of starting it?" I stated there should not be any damage and that I would personally get the fuel drained as quickly as possible. Obviously I removed the contaminated fuel from the car and put in the appropriate fuel, and then one more contented client had the ability to carry on with his ride without the need for bother. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and that is actually what can make operating on weekends in Northamptonshire just a tiny bit less painful for me!

The vehicle was chugging and then it cut out when she came to the entrance of her office.

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 VAT 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.
