The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to an automobile parking spot we are able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel can produce idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can handle both circumstances pretty expediently.

Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one is going to be completely wet and unusable.

A woman from Orwell with a full car of children in her diesel red BMW 745 had put £40 of petrol at the Co Op service station.

We reassured her that the car should be alright and that she would be ready to go soon. When we arrived she was visible upset but while our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable.

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.
