The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to address in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank will likely bring about idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both cases quite easily.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

This really was the night shift. It was close to 3:30 in the morning and noone was about. It had been rather quiet thus far, and me and Paul were relaxing reading a couple of old magazines. It was an uncommon calm time in Hampshire. Actually it was that tranquil that when my mobile eventually rang I leaped with surprise! The person stated: "I've just finished my night shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in the beautiful BMW 645 by mistake". I instructed him to tell us where the car was situated and we set off, ending up in Fratton less than an hour later. The fuel was removed from the car. He thanked us profusely for coming out so fast. As we were going back home we noticed two ladies on the edge of the road who looked like they suffered a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled over and helped them change it, to their elation.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

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.
