The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important issue to address in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel will often contribute to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both situations pretty swiftly.

Remember however that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

This was what is called the graveyard shift. It was about dawn and almost noone was stirring. It was pretty quiet thus far, and me and John were sitting looking through a few old newspapers. It was an unusual calm hour in Greater Manchester. Actually it was so tranquil that the instant the phone finally rang it made me start! The person on the phone said: "I've just finished my overnight shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in my diesel cream Volvo XC70 by mistake". I instructed him to tell us where the car was situated and we left, getting to him in Harper Green 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle. He said thanks a lot for arriving so quickly. As we were coming back to the depot we spotted two girls on the edge of the highway who appeared to have a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled up and helped them change it, much to their elation.

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 VA 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.
