The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant matter to deal with in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol can result in idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both circumstances very quickly.

You should know though that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Just had a fantastic night's sleep! 7:00 am on a bright Sunday and we were en route to help an elder lady after she put petrol in her diesel red Chevrolet Caprice in Colliers Wood. I had been advised she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and stranded on a backwater lane on route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I punched the location straight into the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour or so. I turned up at the location and drained the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. While I was doing the work she said to me, "I'm becoming fairly forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel seeing that I'd just acquired it a few days back right after my other car, which I'd used for about 30 years, eventually broke down". I got the job completed and she presented me a peppermint and said thanks. What a pleasant Merton woman!

Consequently, if you have filled your petrol automobile with the wrong fuel, or petrol in your diesel motor vehicle just about anywhere in Merton, call us right now. Our expert mechanics are completely ready for you.

I appreciated a perfect day hiking on my day off and felt pleased with myself the following day as I was on the way to help a young couple vacationing in Colliers Wood. They had conked out after filling diesel into their aunt's Seat, and they were about half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their location and smirked to myself as I listened to the gal berating her hubby for actually being so daft. "Exactly how could you even find a way to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this situation comes to pass regularly in Merton and that it is nothing at all to stress about, and yet he in spite of everything had an earful. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. At any rate, I removed the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted so long and considered what my wife would say to me if I did the same thing... I'd never hear the end of 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.
