The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to take care of in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can easily result in idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both circumstances pretty expediently.

Bear in mind however that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one is going to be totally water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a car or truck parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

Ahhh, that was a good night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a bright Bank Holiday Monday and I was en route to help an elder sweetheart after she had put petrol in her diesel teal Volvo850 in Broughall. I had been told she had driven away from the petrol station and was stranded in a country lane along the way to visit her grandchildren. I popped the location straight into the Satnav and was with her in less than an hour. I got to the destination and drained the wrong fuel from the car. As I was doing the work she said to me, "Now I'm getting quite forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car taking diesel seeing that I'd only bought it several days ago when my previous one, which I'd owned for about twenty five years, finally broke down". I finished the drain and she gave me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. Such a pleasant Shropshire 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.
