The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important situation to handle in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel will often cause idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied effectively, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both circumstances pretty expediently.

You should know however that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car in BB7 Postcode - Twiston Misfueling

Just had a quality night of sleep! It was 7:00 on a rainy Saturday and we were en route to help an old sweetheart who put petrol in her diesel baby blue Mercedes CLK-Class in Twiston. I'd been advised she had left the petrol station and was stranded on a rural road en route to visit her grandchildren. I popped the location straight into the TomTom and arrived inside 60 minutes. I arrived at the destination and drained the wrong fuel from the car. While I was working she explained, "Now I'm getting relatively absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle using diesel as I'd only bought it a week back after my former one, which I had owned for in excess of 25 years, finally died on me". I finished the drain and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. What a precious Lancashire woman!

I had a great day cycling on my off day and was feeling contented the next day as I headed out to help a young couple away in Twiston. They conked out after adding diesel into their grass green Volvo V40, and were around half an hour away. I showed up at their location and laughed to myself while I heard to the gal telling her husband off for actually being so confused. "Just how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this occurs on a regular basis in Lancashire and that it's absolutely nothing to stress about, nonetheless he yet still got his ear bent. Poor guy. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the right fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed so long and pondered on what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I would never ever hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car Lancashire - Petrol in Diesel Car Twiston

I am not ever excessively keen on running on Sundays, and a while back was the same. I had just departed home filled with a tasty Sunday roast cooked for us by the better half, and I was on the way to deal with a fellow who had filled the incorrect fuel in his blue Honda Civic Si. He was somewhere in Twiston thus it wouldn't be long before I got to him. Just as I drove up at the rear of the car and stepped out he told me "Thank the Lord! I incredibly had my thoughts on other stuff and did not realise I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I created any damage as a result of driving it?" I explained truth be told there shouldn't be any damage and also that I'd personally get the contaminated fuel drained as quickly as possible for him. Needless to say I drained the contaminated fuel from the car and filled up with some correct fuel, and so one more contented customer was able to continue on his ride without the need for bother. The guy couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what tends to make earning a living on weekends in Lancashire just a little bit less painful for me!

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.
