The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important situation to address in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel tank is going to produce idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases very easily.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a car parking spot we can access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.


Wrong Fuel in Car in BS41 Postcode - East Dundry Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night of sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a sunny Saturday and we were on my way to help an old lovely lady after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel teal Hyundai Tiburon in East Dundry. I had been told she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was stranded on a country road en route to see her godchildren. I popped her location straight into the TomTom and arrived within 60 minutes. I got to the location and extracted the wrong fuel from the vehicle. While I was working she told me, "I'm becoming rather absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car needing diesel as I'd only just acquired it a few days back after my other one, which I had for in excess of twenty years, finally broke down". I completed the job and she gifted me a toffee and said thanks. Such a precious Somerset lady!

We hold full Environment Agency compliance and full Insurance for your assurance. We have the capacity to attend to any automobile variations no matter if they have been driven on contaminated fuel or not.

Wrong Fuel Assist East Dundry - Wrong Fuel in Car East Dundry

I had enjoyed a great evening hiking during my day off and was feeling contented with myself the next working day as I headed out to assist a young family who were on vacation in East Dundry. They'd conked out after putting petrol into their stylish Mercedes SL-Class, and were approximately an hour away. I arrived at their position and smirked while I listened to the girl berating her man for turning out to be so silly. "Just how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I attempted to explain that this situation comes to pass all the time in Somerset and that it is nothing at all to fret about, nevertheless he in spite of everything got an ear bashing by his better half. Poor chap. At any rate, I drained the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. As they drove away I shouted good bye and wondered what my missus would say to me if perhaps I made the very same blunder... I would never live it down!

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.
