The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol is going to lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can handle both cases very easily.

Keep in mind though that if ever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be totally water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car in SE1 Postcode - Bermondsey Misfueling

A young lady had come to a stop on a street, Bermondsey having just put the wrong fuel in her car. She was in tears and quite troubled as she had put £45 petrol in her diesel car. As she phoned us we made an effort to cool her as best we could, telling her that all would be ok. When we got to her she was not upset any more and was rather interested in watching our engineer carry out the fuel drain on her green Peugeot Bipper. Later she said: "My car is like my child, I recently paid for it and it genuinely horrified me that I had put a whole lot of wrong fuel in it. I'm very happy that it was very easily repairable."

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.
