The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to take care of in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel may trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both situations rather simply.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to an automobile parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've successfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

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.
