The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious matter to deal with in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel can easily lead to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both situations rather quickly.

Take note that if the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be completely water-logged and useless.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Oxford (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a full Oxfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill your vehicle if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) to fill the car. They can also deal with the common problems which can go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Just had a quality night's sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a sunny Sunday and we were off to help an older woman after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel silver BMW in Oxford. I had been advised she had driven away from the petrol station and was stranded in a backwater road along the way to see her godchildren. I got her location plugged into the TomTom and got there in less than an hour. I got to the destination and removed the contaminated fuel from the car. As I was doing it she explained, "Now I'm getting relatively forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle using diesel seeing that I'd only just bought it several days back when my old car, which I had for more than twenty five years, finally gave up the ghost". I got the drain completed and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a lovely Oxfordshire woman!

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.
