The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a serious condition to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol may bring about idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can handle both cases fairly expediently.

Bear in mind though that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will likely be completely wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Esher

I am certainly not so enthusiastic about doing the job on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I'd just left the family following a lovely roast made for us by the missus, and I was off to assist a fellow who filled the incorrect fuel in his dirty red VW Jetta. He was only in Esher therefore it wasn't a long time before I arrived with him. As I drove up at the vehicle and stepped out he explained to me "Thank God! I foolishly had my attention on stuff and failed to realise I have put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I caused any damage because of running it?" I determined that generally there probably should not be damage and also that I'd remove the wrong fuel as soon as possible. Obviously I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and put in the appropriate fuel, and another happy client could carry on with their ride without any difficulty. He couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what helps make carrying out work on Sundays in Surrey a tiny bit easier in my opinion!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Esher - Fuel Rescue Esher

This was certainly the night shift. It was about sunrise and nobody was stirring. It had been fairly quiet until now, and me and Ryan were relaxing perusing some old articles. It was an unusual tranquil time in Surrey. It was so tranquil that the instant my mobile rang I leaped with surprise! The person on the other end told me: "I have just ended my night shift and incredibly filled petrol in the diesel mint green VW". We asked him to tell us just where the vehicle was and we set off, ending up in Esher an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned from the motor and he said thank you for coming so rapidly. While we were returning to the office we saw two girls on the side of the highway who seemed to have a puncture. So we got out to change it, to their elation.

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 VAT 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.
