The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel will likely trigger idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases rather expediently.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one is going to be completely wet and unusable.

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.
