Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious issue to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel will likely produce idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both cases fairly easily.

Be aware that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

I punched her location in the Satnav and was with her inside an hour or so. I turned up at the car and drained the wrong fuel in the car vehicle.

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.
