The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel can certainly result in idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances very expediently.

Take note though that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

I'd had a great evening cycling during my holiday and was feeling delighted the following working day as I set out to help a young couple who were on holiday in Taynton. They had conked out after putting petrol into their classic Ford Transit Connect, and they were about an hour away. I got there at their position and laughed while I listened to the lady telling off her spouse for being so confused. "Precisely how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I tried to clarify that this occurs frequently in Oxfordshire and that it's absolutely nothing to be concerned about, but he all the same got his ear bent by his missus. I felt sorry for the boy. Anyhow, I extracted all the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some proper fuel. Watching while they drove off I waved bon voyage and thought about what her indoors would ask me if I did the exact same thing... I would never live it down!

No one likes being stuck in a vehicle full of the improper fuel in the middle of the street. Our last customer who put contaminated fuel in her car (aunt's Vauxhall Movano) in Taynton had exactly that kind of headache: "You may already know I erroneously put unleaded in my diesel car like a absolute idiot. I was so concerned about contaminating my fuel that I was in tears. Fortunately I needn't have worried seeing as you were brilliant in resolving it."

This was most definitely the night shift. It was around 2:30 in the morning and hardly anyone was around. It was fairly quiet thus far, and me and Paul were sitting about reading through a couple of old articles. That was an unusual quiet time in Oxfordshire. It was indeed that peaceful that when the phone eventually rang I leaped with surprise! The customer on the opposite end told me: "I have just finished my night shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in the Ferarri red Hyundai Genesis by mistake". I asked him to tell us exactly where he was and we set off, arriving in Taynton less than an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned from the motor. He said thanks for coming so promptly. While we were returning to base we spotted two young women at the side of the street who looked like they had a puncture. Accordingly we pulled up to help them change it, to their elation.

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.
