The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant matter to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel can lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both cases very easily.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be completely wet and ineffective.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Abbots Morton (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Worcestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill up your car or truck. They will be able to take care of any of the typical problems which can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel in Car in WR7 Postcode - Abbots Morton Misfueling

Just had a fantastic night's sleep! 7:30 am on a warm Sunday and we were en route to assist an old lovely lady after she had put petrol in her diesel maroon Mitsubishi 3000GT in Abbots Morton. I had been informed she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and pulled up on a backwater lane along the way to visit her godchildren. I got her location punched straight into the TomTom and was with her in less than an hour or so. I turned up at the destination and removed the contaminated fuel from the car. While I was doing it she said to me, "I'm becoming quite forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel as I had only just got it a short while ago right after my old car, which I'd owned for over 25 years, inevitably died on me". I completed the job and she presented me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. Such a pleasant Worcestershire woman!

I had appreciated a wonderful evening cycling on my day off and felt pleased with myself the next day as I headed out to help a new couple who were holidaying in Abbots Morton. They pulled over after adding petrol in their stylish Renault Espace, and were close to an hour away. I arrived at their position and laughed to myself while I heard to the wife telling her husband off for turning out to be so foolish. "Precisely how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this happens on a regular basis in Worcestershire and that it's really nothing to worry about, nevertheless he all the same got an earful by his wife. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. In any case, I drained out the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the right fuel. While watching them drive away I shouted so long and thought about what my missus would do to me if perhaps I made the exact same mistake... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Abbots Morton

Now I'm not excessively interested in carrying out work weekends, and the other day was the same. I'd only just come away from the wife and kids after a superb Sunday roast cooked for me by the missus, and I was en route to help a fellow after he had put the wrong fuel in his rugged Audi Quattro. He was only in Abbots Morton thus it wasn't a long time before I arrived with him. As I arrived behind the vehicle and got busy draining he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I stupidly had my mind on something else and did not perceive I'd put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I brought on any kind of harm because of starting it?" I determined there should not be any problems and that I'd remove the fuel right away for him. Naturally I removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and put in the correct fuel, and then another pleased customer was able to continue his ride without the hassle. He could hardly stop thanking me, and this is what tends to make operating on Sundays in Worcestershire just a little bit easier in my opinion!

It truly was an unsociable time to be up. It was close to sunrise and nobody was about. It had become quite uneventful until now, and Brian and I were sitting reading through several old articles. It was an uncommon calm time in Worcestershire. It was that quiet that the instant the phone eventually rang I jumped! The voice on the other end stated: "I have completed my night shift and stupidly put petrol in my beautiful BMW M Roadster". We told him to tell us just where the vehicle was situated and we headed out, ending up in Abbots Morton not as much as half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the motor. He thanked us for getting there so fast. While we were going back home we spotted two women on the edge of the highway who seemed like they suffered a flat. So we got out to change it, to their delight.

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.
