The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol will often cause idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases quite easily.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.


Wrong Fuel in Car in TN34 Postcode - Broomsgrove Misfueling

What a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a sunny Wednesday and I was en route to help an older lovely lady who put petrol in her diesel friend's VW Jetta III in Broomsgrove. I'd been advised she had left the filling station forecourt and broken down along a country lane on the way to see her grandchildren. I plugged the location in the Satnav and got there within an hour. I turned up at the destination and extracted the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing the drain she said to me, "Now I'm getting relatively forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car taking diesel as I had only just got it a week ago after my other one, which I had used for in excess of 30 years, inevitably died on me". I got the drain done and she presented me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a pleasant East Sussex lady!

We did a wrong fuel removal exercise outside a beautiful residential home in Broomsgrove not so long ago.

A woman from Broomsgrove with her children in her diesel deep grey Jeep Comanche had put £20 of petrol at the Tesco filling station. She contacted us crying and very distraught as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel before and did not know what could happen to her vehicle because of it. We reassured her that all would be ok and that she would be in action quickly. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but while our technician started work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked. She quickly brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Particularly with the youngsters on board."

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.
