The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious situation to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel may lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both cases quite easily.

Be aware though that if the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.

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.
