The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant matter to address in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel may trigger idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations rather swiftly.

Remember however that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

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.
