The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel can cause idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both circumstances fairly easily.

You should know that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Just had a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a rainy Sunday and we were en route to help an elder lovely lady who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel new BMW M3 in Harbridge Green. She told us that she had left the filling station forecourt and broken down along a backwater lane on the way to visit her grandchildren. I plugged her location into the TomTom and got there in less than 60 minutes. I arrived at the location and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car car. As I was working she said, "I have been becoming relatively absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car working with diesel because I'd just acquired it a short while ago because my other car, which I had for over thirty years, inevitably died on me". I got the job completed and she gifted me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. What a precious Hampshire woman!

Now I'm not necessarily overly hot for doing the job on weekends, and a while back was the same. I had just left home filled with a tasty roast prepared by the better half, and I was off to help a guy after he had put the incorrect fuel in his burgundy red Ford Focus. He was only in Harbridge Green so it wouldn't be a long time before I reached him. Just as I drove up at the rear of the car and got busy draining he explained to me "Praise the Lord! I foolishly had my mind on something else and failed to ascertain I've put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought on damage by simply driving it?" I said truth be told there shouldn't be any kind of damage and that also I'd get the wrong fuel drained quickly for him. Needless to say I removed the fuel from the vehicle and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and so yet another pleased client could carry on with his trip with no difficulty. He couldn't stop thanking me, and that is what helps make carrying out work on weekends in Hampshire just that small bit less painful to me!

A motorist working in Harbridge Green called us after she had tried to get her wrong fueled car to the office. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel luxury Audi RS 6 and, like plenty prior to her, believed that she would be able to simply fill her tank with diesel and it would be fine. The car was coughing and then it cut out when she arrived at the entrance of her office. We soon went to work on the fuel drain following her call and got it fixed within one hour whilst she was at the office. She came outside soon after and thanked us saying, "I'm very glad you repaired my car."

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.
