The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely an important situation to address in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases very quickly.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

I had appreciated a great afternoon cycling on my off day and felt pleased the next morning as I set off to aid a young couple who were holidaying in Cotham. They'd broken down after filling the wrong fuel in their brother's Audi Allroad, and the car was roughly half an hour away. I arrived at their car and laughed to myself as I listened to the wife telling off her partner for turning out to be so silly. "How could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this situation comes to pass on daily basis in Nottinghamshire and that it's truly nothing at all to get worried about, nonetheless he all the same got an ear bashing. I felt sorry for the chap. In any case, I cleaned up and removed all the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some proper fuel.

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.
