The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important condition to handle in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can potentially produce idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases fairly quickly.

You should know though that any time the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Run Out of Fuel Service

We can get out to re-fill the car any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill the car. They can also handle any of the standard issues which might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Ahhh, that was a good night's sleep! It was 7:00 on a warm Sunday and we were en route to assist an old lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel baby blue Honda in Barrowby. I had been informed she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and was broken down on a backwater road on the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I popped the location into the Satnav and was with her in less than an hour. I got to the vehicle and removed the wrong fuel out of the car. As I was doing it she explained, "I'm becoming quite absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel seeing that I'd only just acquired it a couple of days ago after my former one, which I'd had for in excess of twenty five years, inevitably stopped working". I got the drain done and she presented me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. Such a delightful Lincolnshire lady!

This really was the graveyard shift. It was roughly 2:30 in the morning and hardly anyone was about. It was quite dead up to now, and Ryan and I were sitting around reading through several old newspapers. That was an uncommon tranquil hour in Lincolnshire. Actually it was in fact so quiet that the instant the telephone ultimately rang I leaped! The customer told me: "I have completed my evening shift and foolishly put petrol in a friend's Volvo S70 in error". We instructed him to let us know just where the car was located and we headed out, arriving in Barrowby not as much as half an hour later. The fuel was removed from the car. He said many thanks for arriving so promptly. While we were heading back to the depot we found two women on the side of the road who seemed like they had a puncture. So we stopped to change it, much to their delight.

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.
