The 3 things you HAVE TO 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 handle in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol may well produce idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both circumstances pretty simply.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.


Wrong Fuel in Car in NE5 Postcode - Westerhope Misfueling

Just had a good night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a rainy Bank Holiday Monday and I was on the way to help an elder lady who put the wrong fuel in her diesel old Volvo S80 in Westerhope. I had been told she had driven away from the filling station and stranded on a rural lane on route to visit her godchildren. I got the location plugged into the Satnav and arrived within an hour. I reached the location and removed the wrong fuel in the car car. As I was working she explained, "I have been becoming relatively absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car taking diesel because I had only just got it several days ago right after my other one, which I'd used for more than 25 years, eventually broke down". I completed the job and she gave me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. What a precious Tyne and Wear woman!

It truly was the night shift. It was roughly sunrise and nobody was stirring. It was fairly dead thus far, and me and Ryan were loafing looking at some old articles. This was an unusual restful hour in Tyne and Wear. Actually it was indeed that relaxing that the instant my mobile eventually rang it made me jump! The customer on the opposite end said: "I just ended my night shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in my diesel cobalt blue Kia Spectra". We instructed him to tell us just where the vehicle was and we set off, arriving in Westerhope less than an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed from the engine. He thanked us profusely for coming so quickly. As we were returning to the office we spotted two ladies on the edge of the street who seemed to have a flat tyre. As a result we pulled up to 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 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.
