The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel may well cause idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both cases fairly simply.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

We've been called out to numerous private and commercial premises in Nottinghamshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages.

Just had a great night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a rainy Saturday and we were on the way to help an older sweetheart who had put petrol in her diesel Ferarri red Volvo V50 in Hickling Pastures. I had been told she had driven away from the filling station and was pulled up along a backwater lane en route to visit her grandchildren.

I completed the drain and she presented me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a delightful Nottinghamshire lady!

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.
