The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to parking bay we will be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a significant matter to handle in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel can easily cause idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases quite simply.

Keep in mind that if the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

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.
