The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant matter to address in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol will likely produce idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both circumstances fairly expediently.

Be aware however that any time the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will be totally wet and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel Assist Bowlhead Green - Wrong Fuel in Car Bowlhead Green

I enjoyed a wonderful evening hiking on my holiday and was feeling contented with myself the following morning as I headed out to aid a young family holidaying in Bowlhead Green. They'd conked out after filling diesel into their creamy white Lexus LX, and they were around half an hour away. I emerged at their position and smirked as I heard to the lady telling her spouse off for turning out to be so daft. "How could you even manage to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to explain that this goes on frequently in Surrey and that it is nothing to worry about, however he all the same had an ear bashing. Unfortunate lad. Anyway, I drained out the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some proper fuel. Watching while they drove away I waved farewell and wondered what my missus would tell me if I did the same thing... I'd personally never hear the end of it!
