The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious matter to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel is likely to trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both cases fairly simply.

Bear in mind however that any time the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank sitting in the rear of the garden full of unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial properties in Lancashire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a garage, as long as we are able to access it, we can drain 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 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.
