The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol may well bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both circumstances pretty swiftly.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will probably be completely wet and useless.

Wrong Fuel Assist Creekmouth - Wrong Fuel in Car Creekmouth

I had a wonderful day cycling on the weekend and felt pleased with myself the next morning as I set off to assist a new couple holidaying in Creekmouth. They'd pulled over after filling diesel in their apple green Volkswagen GLI, and the car was about an hour's drive away. I turned up at their position and smiled while I listened to the wife chastising her husband for turning out to be so confused. "Exactly how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I wanted to clarify that this comes to pass constantly in Barking and Dagenham and that it is nothing at all to worry about, nonetheless he yet still had an ear bashing by his wife. Poor lad. Anyhow, I drained out the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the right fuel. While they drove away I waved goodbye and wondered what my missus would say to me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I'd personally 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.
