The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly an important matter to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel can potentially bring about idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both cases pretty quickly.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and useless.

I'd had a great afternoon golfing during the weekend and felt cheerful the following morning as I set off to help a new couple who were holidaying in Marshalls Heath. They'd broken down after adding diesel into their canary yellow Chevrolet Caprice, and were approximately half an hour away. I arrived at their position and laughed as I listened to the woman telling her hubby off for actually being so daft. "Just how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this kind of thing comes to pass constantly in Hertfordshire and that it is nothing at all to be anxious about, however he still had an ear bashing by his better half. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. In any case, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I shouted goodbye and wondered what her indoors would do to me if ever I made the exact same blunder... I'd never ever live it down!

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.
