The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

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

Water or AdBlue in your fuel is going to result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both circumstances quite simply.

Remember however that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to an automobile parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've successfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Winkfield Row

I am not necessarily overly excited about carrying out work on weekends, and a week ago was no different. I had just departed home filled with a lovely lunch prepared for us by the better half, and I was en route to sort out a gentleman who had filled the wrong petrol in his rust red Land Rover Range Rover Classic. He was situated in Winkfield Row thus it wasn't a long time before I reached him. Just as I pulled up behind the car and got out he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I stupidly had my attention on stuff and failed to realise I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I created any damage simply by starting it?" I explained that truth be told there probably should not be damage and that I'd get the contaminated fuel drained immediately. Naturally I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and filled it with the suitable fuel, and one more delighted client was able to continue his ride without any subsequent bother. He could hardly stop thanking me, and that is exactly what helps make operating on Sundays in Berkshire a little bit easier in my opinion!

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.
