The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important situation to take care of in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol is going to produce idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both circumstances pretty expediently.

Be aware however that if the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car parking bay we can access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have successfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

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 VA 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.
