The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank will likely lead to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both situations pretty swiftly.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will be completely water-logged and useless.

This was certainly what we call the graveyard shift. It was close to dawn and hardly anyone was around. It had become pretty quiet until now, and me and Paul were relaxing looking at some old papers. That was an unusual tranquil time in Shropshire. Actually it was in fact that tranquil that when the telephone finally rang I leaped! The motorist on the phone told me: "I completed my night shift and stupidly poured petrol in a aunt's Citron Zara by mistake". I asked him to inform us exactly where the car was situated and we set off, getting to him in Walford under half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was extracted from the vehicle and he thanked us for coming out so quickly. While we were coming back to the depot we noticed two women on the side of the road who appeared to have a puncture. So we stopped to help them change it, much 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.
