The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to take care of in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel can certainly produce idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both situations rather easily.

Remember that if ever the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car in DH4 Postcode - Stony Gate Misfueling

Just had a great night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a warm Saturday and we were on the way to assist an old woman after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel red Mercedes E-Class in Stony Gate. I'd been told she had left the filling station forecourt and broken down on a country road on the way to visit her family. I got her location plugged in the Satnav and was with her inside an hour. I turned up at the vehicle and drained the contaminated fuel out of the car. As I was doing the drain she said to me, "Now I'm getting somewhat forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle using diesel since I'd only got it a few days back because my other car, which I'd had for about 30 years, finally stopped working". I got the drain done and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. What a precious Tyne and Wear woman!

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.
