The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant situation to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel will cause idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both circumstances quite quickly.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

A lady had broken down on a road, Margaretting Tye having just put the wrong fuel in her car. She was weeping and really agitated as she had put £60 petrol in her diesel car. As she contacted us we made an effort to relax her as best we could, encouraging her that it would be fine. When we reached her she was no longer disrupted and was pretty curious in watching our fuel drainer perform the fuel drain on her modified Fiat Uno. Soon after she said: "My car is like my baby, I just got it so it genuinely worried me that I had put a whole lot of wrong fuel in it. I'm gratified that it was so very easily fixable."

I had appreciated a terrific day golfing during my holiday and was feeling contented the next day as I set out to aid a young couple holidaying in Margaretting Tye. They'd conked out after adding petrol into their mum's Skoda Yeti, and the car was about half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and laughed while I heard to the woman telling her man off for being so stupid. "Exactly how could you actually find a way to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this occurs quite frequently in Essex and that it's nothing at all to fret about, and yet he still got an ear bashing. Unfortunate boy. Anyhow, I removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed bon voyage and wondered what my wife would do to me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would under no circumstances live it down!

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.
