Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a significant issue to address in an automobile - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will produce idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases pretty quickly.

Keep in mind that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will be completely wet and ineffective.


Wrong Fuel in Car in PO10 Postcode - Hermitage Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a good night of sleep! 7:30 am on a bright Wednesday and we were on my way to help an older lovely lady after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel new-shape Cadillac SRX in Hermitage. I had been informed she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was stranded in a rural road on the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I plugged her location into the TomTom and was with her within an hour. I turned up at the destination and drained the contaminated fuel from the car. While I was doing the work she said, "Now I'm becoming fairly absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel as I'd only bought it a week ago when my former one, which I had for over twenty five years, eventually stopped working". I got the drain done and she gave me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a precious West Sussex woman!

Wrong Fuel Assist Hermitage - Wrong Fuel in Car Hermitage

I appreciated a fantastic evening cycling on my afternoon off and was feeling pleased with myself the following working day as I set out to assist a young family on vacation in Hermitage. They conked out after adding petrol in their red Peugeot Expert, and were around an hour's travel away. I got there at their location and smirked as I listened to the wife telling her man off for being so silly. "How could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I tried to tell her that this kind of thing happens frequently in West Sussex and that it's absolutely nothing to stress about, nonetheless he yet still had an ear bashing. Poor boy. At any rate, I extracted the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive away I mouthed farewell and wondered what my missus would do to me if ever I did the exact same thing... I would never ever hear the end of it!

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.
