The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important situation to deal with in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol is likely to trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases pretty easily.

Bear in mind however that if ever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will be totally water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel Assist Longbenton - Wrong Fuel in Car Longbenton

I'd had a terrific afternoon golfing during my holiday and felt pleased the following working day as I was on the way to assist a young family on vacation in Longbenton. They'd pulled over after inserting the wrong fuel into their winter grey Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class, and the car was around an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and laughed to myself as I listened to the lady telling her husband off for being so foolish. "Exactly how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this goes on on a regular basis in Tyne and Wear and that it is nothing to worry about, even so he all the same had his ear bent. Unfortunate guy. In any case, I removed the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed goodbye and considered what my missus would tell me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!

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.
