The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've successfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to address in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel can certainly trigger idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both circumstances pretty quickly.

Bear in mind though that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and useless.

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.
