The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel may trigger idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both circumstances fairly expediently.

Be aware however that any time the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car Greater Manchester - Petrol in Diesel Car Stretford

Now I'm not actually very enthusiastic about doing work on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I'd only just departed the wife and kids filled with a wonderful lunch cooked for me by the missus, and I was en route to assist a gentleman after he filled the wrong petrol in his canary yellow Peugeot 106. He was located in Stretford and so it wouldn't be a long time before I reached him. Just as I drove up at the rear of the car and started work he explained to me "Thank God! I foolishly had my concentration on other considerations and failed to perceive I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I brought about some damage as a result of starting it?" I revealed that there shouldn't be harm and also that I would personally remove the contaminated fuel at once for him. Obviously I drained the wrong fuel from the car and put in the appropriate fuel, and thus yet another pleased client was able to carry on with their journey without any bother. The guy could not stop thanking me, and that is actually what tends to make earning a living on weekends in Greater Manchester that little easier in my opinion!

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.
