The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to handle in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will likely cause idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both circumstances very easily.

Take note that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to parking bay we are able to access the tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across 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 VA 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.
