The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant condition to deal with in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol can easily produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both circumstances very swiftly.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

I'd had a fantastic day golfing on my holiday and felt delighted with myself the next day as I set off to assist a new family vacationing in Oatlands Park. They conked out after adding diesel into their spotless Hyundai Equus, and were roughly an hour away. I showed up at their location and laughed to myself as I listened to the girl berating her partner for actually being so confused. "Just how could you even find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to explain that this occurs all the time in Surrey and that it is absolutely nothing to worry about, and yet he all the same got his ear bent by his better half. Unlucky boy. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. While they drove down the road I waved good bye and wondered what her indoors would say to me if I made the exact same blunder... I would never hear the end of it!

This was exactly what we call the graveyard shift. It was roughly 2:30am and noone was about. It had become pretty quiet so far, and John and I were loafing reading through some old magazines. This was an unusual restful hour in Surrey. It was indeed so calm that the moment my mobile rang it made me start! The customer on the phone told me: "I have just concluded my evening shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in a diesel grass green Jaguar S-Type". I asked him to inform us just where the vehicle was situated and we headed out, getting to him in Oatlands Park not as much as an hour later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car. He thanked us profusely for coming so promptly. While we were going back to base we saw two women on the side of the highway who appeared to have a flat tyre. As a result we pulled over to help them 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.
