The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important matter to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can lead to idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not remedied correctly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both situations fairly simply.

You should know though that if the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Dassels

Now I'm certainly not very enthusiastic about running on Sundays, and a while back was no different. I had just left the wife and kids after eating a wonderful lunch cooked by the missus, and I was off to help a man who had filled the incorrect petrol in his light blue MINI Cooper. He was only in Dassels and so I arrived with him before long. Just as I drove up right behind the vehicle and got busy draining he said to me "Thank the Lord! I foolishly had my concentration on something else and failed to perceive I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I brought about any problems as a result of driving it?" I explained that generally there probably should not be any problems and also that I'd personally drain the fuel as quickly as possible for him. It goes without saying that I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and filled it with the appropriate fuel, and yet another happy motorist was able to continue their trip without the need for bother. The man could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that is what makes working on Sundays in Hertfordshire just that small 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.
