The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant matter to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank will likely cause idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases rather quickly.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and ineffective.


Wrong Fuel in Car in RG8 Postcode - Sulham Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a great night's sleep! 7:30 on a sunny Saturday and we were en route to assist an old woman who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel dad's Audi A4 in Sulham. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station and was broken down on a rural lane on route to visit her grandchildren. I got her location punched in the Satnav and got there inside an hour or so. I reached the location and removed the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she explained, "I have been becoming fairly absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle needing diesel because I'd only just bought it several days back when my old one, which I'd had for about thirty years, finally stopped working". I finished the drain and she gave me a toffee and said thanks a lot. Such a pleasant Berkshire lady!

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.
