The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant situation to address in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can easily trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases rather expediently.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've successfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.

I had appreciated a fantastic evening golfing on my off day and was feeling pleased with myself the next working day as I was en route to aid a young family who were holidaying in Double Hill. They had stopped after putting the wrong fuel in their sunflower yellow Chevrolet Corsica, and they were approximately half an hour's travel away. I turned up at their car and laughed to myself while I listened to the lady telling her hubby off for turning out to be so foolish. "How could you even be able to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this occurs regularly in Somerset and that it is absolutely nothing to stress about, however he in spite of everything had his ear bent by his missus. Poor guy. Anyways, I removed the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. While they drove away I mouthed bon voyage and thought about what her indoors would do to me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I would personally never hear the end of it!

A lady from Double Hill with a full car of little ones in her diesel trusty Mitsubishi Pajero had put £20 of petrol at the BP station. She contacted us crying and very worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and didn't know what could happen to her car in doing so. We assured her that the vehicle would be alright and that she would be ready to go soon. When we got there she was still upset but as our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she noticed that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked. She soon enough cheered up and was on her way saying, "I can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Particularly with the children in the back."

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.
