The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can certainly produce idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both cases fairly quickly.

Be aware though that if ever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.

  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.
