The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol may lead to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases rather simply.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Ridgeway

We got a telephone call from a individual whose buff Mercedes Sprinter 2500 had stopped on a road after a misfuel. "I mixed up the pumps and put petrol instead of diesel in my car in error. You guys came out and resolved the problem after my car quit." We purged the unleaded from the diesel tank and flushed the engine thoroughly afterwards and the gentleman could then go on with his deliveries.

This was most definitely an unsociable time to be on the road. It was roughly sunrise and nobody was stirring. It had become quite dead thus far, and me and Ray were sitting around browsing a number of old newspapers. This was an unusual peaceful moment in Somerset. Actually it was that calm that the instant the telephone ultimately rang I jumped! The customer on the opposite end stated: "I have only just completed my evening shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in the diesel apple green Volkswagen Golf by mistake". We got him to let us know exactly where he was located and we left, arriving in Ridgeway only an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the vehicle and he said thanks a lot for showing up so fast. As we were returning home we saw two young ladies on the side of the street who seemed like they had a flat. As a result we pulled up to help them change it, 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.
