The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel tank will cause idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both circumstances pretty simply.

You should know that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will probably be completely wet and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car Lancashire - Petrol in Diesel Car Borwick

I am not actually too enthusiastic about running on weekends, and last week was no different. I'd just come away from home following a tasty lunch cooked for me by the wife, and I was on my way to deal with a fellow after he put the incorrect petrol in his rugged Nissan Leaf. He was somewhere in Borwick and so I was with him very quickly. As I pulled up at the rear of the vehicle and got busy draining he told me "Praise the Lord! I foolishly had my attention on other things and failed to grasp that I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I brought on damage by simply starting it?" I said there shouldn't be damage and also that I would personally remove the contaminated fuel as quickly as possible. Needless to say I drained the fuel from the car and put in the suitable fuel, and thus yet another satisfied customer had the ability to carry on with his trip without the need for bother. He could not stop thanking me, and this is exactly what makes earning a living on Sundays in Lancashire that tiny bit easier for me!

We assured her that everything should be alright and that she would be ready to go very quickly. When we arrived on scene she was still upset but as our technician got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she discovered that something could be done and her car wasn't ruined. She quickly brightened up and was on her way saying, "I really can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Particularly with the youngsters in the back."

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 VA 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.
