The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel may well trigger idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances pretty simply.

Remember however that any time the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Bobbingworth

I am not necessarily so hot for doing work on weekends, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I'd just departed the wife and kids after a tasty roast made for me by the better half, and I was on the way to sort out a guy after he had filled the wrong petrol in his khaki green Mercedes Sprinter 2500. He was only in Bobbingworth hence I arrived with him very quickly. Just as I arrived at the vehicle and got out he explained to me "Thank the Almighty! I had my concentration on other things and failed to grasp that I'd put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I inflicted problems simply by running it?" I explained truth be told there probably should not be any kind of damage and that I'd get the contaminated fuel drained as quickly as possible for him. As expected I drained the fuel from the car and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and so yet another delighted motorist was able to continue his trip without any difficulty. The man could not stop thanking me, and this is actually what can make working on Sundays in Essex just a little bit better to me!

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.

  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.
