The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious situation to address in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel tank may cause idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases rather swiftly.

You should know though that if the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

Wrong Fuel Assist Winscombe - Wrong Fuel in Car Winscombe

I had enjoyed a great day golfing on the weekend and felt cheerful with myself the following day as I headed out to aid a new family who were holidaying in Winscombe. They had pulled over after putting the wrong fuel into their compact Vauxhall Combo, and the car was around half an hour's drive away. I turned up at their position and laughed while I listened to the gal chastising her partner for being so silly. "Exactly how could you even find a way to fill the vehicle up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to tell her that this situation happens everyday in Somerset and that it is absolutely nothing to stress about, even so he yet still had an ear bashing by his better half. Poor lad. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the right fuel. As they drove away I shouted good bye and considered what my wife would ask me if I did the same thing... I would never hear the end of it!

A customer from Winscombe with a full car of kids in her diesel white Mazda B-Series had filled her car with £20 of petrol at the BP filling station. She phoned us sobbing and genuinely worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and didn't know what might happen to her vehicle . We assured her that everything should be fine and that she would be back up and running very quickly. When we arrived she was still upset but while our technician started work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she saw that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable.

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.
