The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir sitting at the rear of your premises full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial properties in Buckinghamshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally an important issue to deal with in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank can trigger idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both cases quite easily.

You should know however that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Summerstown - Fuel Rescue Summerstown

This really was what we call the night shift. It was roughly sunrise and almost noone was around. It had been quite quiet so far, and Ryan and I were relaxing reading a number of old magazines. This was an uncommon tranquil hour in Buckinghamshire. It was indeed that tranquil that the instant the telephone finally rang it made me start! The customer told me: "I have only just ended my evening shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in my black Citron Zara in error". I told him to let us know exactly where the vehicle was and we set off, reaching him in Summerstown 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was extracted from the car and he said thanks a lot for showing up so promptly. While we were returning home we spotted two young ladies at the side of the street who seemed like they had a puncture. So we pulled over to help them 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.
