The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!




When we get to your vehicle

Once the technician is at your location and has access to your vehicle, his first work is to confirm whether the problem of your vehicle is due to wrong fuel or not. If the finding is negative, no services will be carried out on fixing the suspected incorrect fuel in the car. You won't be charged for the quoted services, rather, a call out charge will be asked of you.

If our technician finds out that it is indeed the problem of incorrect fuel, he will start solving it quickly since he will have fresh fuel as well as the needed equipment with him. He will remove the mixed fuel, flush fuel system thoroughly and then fill it up with the fresh fuel priced at the same rate as at the petrol station. We also take all major debit and credit cards as we understand your situation and hence there is no need to be scared if you are out of cash.

Contamination with Water and AdBlue

Putting the incorrect fuel in your car isn’t the only cause of engine problems. Such symptoms as lack of power, irregular running, excessive smoke, and engine stalling may also be due to fuel that is contaminated with water. This is a serious issue that can completely damage the fuel filters.

You can also observe the same signs if AdBlue is added int the diesel tank. This additive which is used to purify the emissions of your engine should only be added through its own separate tank and automatic dosing system inbuilt into the vehicle rather than directly into a fuel tank of a diesel engine. If added manually, this should be carried out by somebody who knows the appropriate place to put it.

If you are faced with these two issues then you shouldn't feel worried as we can solve both of these issues using similar procedure we use in cases of wrong fuel contamination. So, if your problem is wrong fuel, water contaminated fuel, damaged fuel filters or AdBlue into the incorrect tank, don’t worry, we can fix it for you thus enabling you to continue with your journey.

I'd had a fantastic afternoon hiking during the weekend and felt cheerful the next working day as I set off to aid a young couple who were vacationing. They broken down after putting petrol into their Lashenden, and the car was around half an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and smiled while I heard to the woman telling her hubby off for actually being so silly. "Precisely how could you actually find a way to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this problem comes to pass constantly and that it's actually absolutely nothing to get worried about, nevertheless he yet still had an earful. Poor chap. At any rate, I extracted all the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted bon voyage and considered what my wife would do to me if perhaps I made the very same error... I would never hear the end of it!

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.
