The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important matter to deal with in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank will often trigger idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both cases fairly simply.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will probably be totally wet and useless.

So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to an automobile parking spot we can access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel.

Wrong Fuel Assist Holme - Wrong Fuel in Car Holme

I had enjoyed a wonderful afternoon fishing on my off day and felt satisfied the following day as I set off to assist a new couple vacationing in Holme. They pulled over after putting diesel into their dark red BMW M3, and the car was close to an hour's travel away. I turned up at their location and smiled to myself while I listened to the gal telling her man off for being so silly. "Precisely how could you possibly find a way to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this happens constantly in Cambridgeshire and that it's nothing at all to worry about, even so he yet still got his ear bent. Poor lad. At any rate, I drained all the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. While watching them drive off I shouted bon voyage and thought about what my wife would tell me in the event that I did the same thing... I'd never hear the end of it!
