The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Little London (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a complete Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up the car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and refill your car. They will be able to fix any of the usual issues that might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol is going to bring about idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both situations rather easily.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Little London

I am not ever so keen on doing the job on Sundays, and a week ago was the same. I'd just left the wife and kids following a lovely roast cooked by the wife, and I was on the way to assist a man because he put the wrong fuel in his matte black Vauxhall Meriva. He was stationed in Little London so I was with him rapidly. Just as I pulled up at the rear of the car and got busy draining he said to me "Thank the Almighty! I stupidly had my mind on other stuff and failed to grasp that I have put diesel in my petrol car. Have I caused any kind of damage through starting it?" I revealed that generally there shouldn't be any kind of damage and that also I'd get the contaminated fuel drained quickly for him. It goes without saying that I removed the fuel from the car and filled it with some suitable fuel, and another delighted motorist was able to continue on their trip without the need for difficulty. He did not stop thanking me, and this tends to make working on weekends in Gloucestershire that little bit less painful for me personally!

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.
