Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol will often result in idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied fully, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both cases rather swiftly.

Remember however that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car in IP16 Postcode - Aldringham Misfueling

Just had a quality night of sleep! It was 7:00 am on a warm Saturday and I was on my way to help an elder sweetheart after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel husband's Ford Transit Connect in Aldringham. I'd been told she had left the filling station and was pulled up in a country road on the way to visit her family. I got her location punched into the Satnav and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I reached the car and removed the wrong fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing the work she said, "Now I'm getting somewhat forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle needing diesel because I had only just got it a couple of days ago when my other car, which I'd had for about 30 years, finally gave up the ghost". I got the drain done and she presented me a peppermint and said thank you. Such a delightful Suffolk lady!

Wrong Fuel Assist Aldringham - Wrong Fuel in Car Aldringham

I'd had a terrific day fishing on my holiday and was feeling pleased with myself the next day as I headed out to assist a new couple who were on vacation in Aldringham. They had broken down after filling diesel in their rust red Kia Rio5, and were about half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their car and laughed to myself while I heard to the girl chastising her husband for turning out to be so stupid. "Just how could you actually find a way to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to tell her that this comes to pass constantly in Suffolk and that it's nothing at all to worry about, and yet he all the same had his ear bent by his wife. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. Anyways, I extracted all the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some proper fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed good bye and pondered on what her indoors would do to me if I did the very same thing... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

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.
