The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important matter to address in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel can trigger idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both situations fairly quickly.

Remember though that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car in SR4 Postcode - Deptford Misfueling

What a good night of sleep! 7:00 am on a warm Tuesday and we were on my way to assist an old sweetheart who put petrol in her diesel mustard yellow Cadillac Eldorado in Deptford. She told us that she had driven away from the filling station and was stranded on a backwater lane on route to visit her family. I got her location punched straight into the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour. I arrived at the car and extracted the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she explained, "I have been becoming relatively forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel as I had only just got it several days ago after my other one, which I'd used for over twenty years, inevitably died". I finished the drain and she gave me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. What a precious Tyne and Wear lady!

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 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.
  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.
