The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be an important situation to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol will often result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both situations quite swiftly.

Remember however that so long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will likely be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.


Wrong Fuel in Car in TA23 Postcode - Roadwater Misfueling

What a quality night's sleep! 7:30 on a rainy Sunday and I was off to help an old lovely lady who had put petrol in her diesel burgundy red BMW 750 in Roadwater. She told us that she had left the filling station and broken down along a rural road along the way to see her family. I popped her location straight into the TomTom and got there within 60 minutes. I got to the location and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. As I was working she said to me, "I am becoming relatively absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car using diesel since I'd just bought it several days back when my former one, which I had owned for in excess of twenty years, inevitably broke down". I got the job completed and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. What a lovely Somerset lady!

I had enjoyed a perfect evening golfing during my off day and felt delighted with myself the next day as I was on the way to aid a young couple away in Roadwater. They pulled over after inserting petrol in their navy blue Nissan Cube, and they were approximately an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and smiled to myself while I heard to the wife telling her partner off for turning out to be so silly. "Precisely how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this situation occurs all the time in Somerset and that it's nothing to be concerned about, even so he all the same got an earful by his missus. Poor boy. Anyway, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some right fuel.

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Roadwater

Now I'm not actually excessively hot for doing work on Sundays, and a while back was no different. I'd only just left the family after having a lovely dinner made for us by the wife, and I was off to assist a fellow who filled the incorrect fuel in his husband's Dodge Challenger. He was situated in Roadwater therefore it wasn't long before I arrived with him. Just as I arrived right behind the car and got out he explained to me "Thank the Lord! I incredibly had my mind on other considerations and did not ascertain I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I inflicted damage by starting it?" I said truth be told there shouldn't be any harm and also that I'd get the contaminated fuel drained as soon as possible for him. As expected I drained the wrong fuel from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and so yet another delighted client could continue his trip without any subsequent bother. He could hardly stop thanking me, and that is actually what can make operating on Sundays in Somerset just that small bit better for me!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Roadwater - Fuel Rescue Roadwater

A customer from Roadwater with her children in her diesel buff Skoda Octavia had filled her car with £42 of petrol at the Shell petrol station. She phoned us sobbing and very distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel car before and did not know what could happen to her vehicle because of it. We told her that the car should be ok and that she would be back ready to go soon. When we arrived she was still upset but while our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked. She quickly brightened up and was up and running saying, "I really can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Specifically with the little ones 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.
