The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to address in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can potentially cause idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both circumstances pretty easily.

Take note though that if the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in Somerset to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages.

This was certainly an unsociable time to be up. It was roughly 3am and almost noone was around. It had become quite quiet until now, and me and Ryan were sitting about perusing a few old newspapers. That was an uncommon quiet moment in Somerset. It was that relaxing that when my mobile rang I jumped! The motorist on the other end explained: "I have just ended my overnight shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in my dark red Cadillac XLR-V by mistake". We asked him to inform us where exactly he was situated and we hit the road, arriving in Beetham not as much as an hour or so later. The fuel was removed from the engine. He said many thanks for coming so rapidly. While we were returning to base we found two ladies at the side of the road who looked like they suffered a puncture. As a result we stopped to 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 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.
