The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have successfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant issue to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol will bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations quite expediently.

Bear in mind that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one is going to be completely wet and unusable.

Just had a fantastic night of sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Saturday and we were off to assist an elder woman who put petrol in her diesel well worn Hyundai HED-5 in Start Hill. I had been informed she had left the petrol station and broken down in a backwater lane along the way to see her godchildren. I punched the location into the Satnav and was with her inside an hour. I turned up at the car and removed the contaminated fuel out of the car. While I was working she said to me, "Now I'm getting rather absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the car taking diesel as I'd only bought it a couple of days ago after my previous one, which I'd used for in excess of 25 years, inevitably broke down". I completed the job and she gave me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. Such a lovely Essex woman!

This was most definitely an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was about sunrise and hardly anyone was around. It had been quite quiet up to now, and John and I were relaxing perusing several old papers. That was an uncommon tranquil hour in Essex. It was indeed that relaxing that the instant my mobile finally rang it made me jump! The motorist told me: "I have ended my evening shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in the metallic blue Volkswagen in error". I instructed him to let us know where the vehicle was located and we headed out, getting to him in Start Hill less than half an hour later. The fuel was extracted from the motor and he said many thanks for coming out so promptly. While we were returning to base we saw two women at the side of the road who seemed like they had a puncture. As a result we pulled up to change it, much to their delight.

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.
