The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can certainly cause idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both cases rather quickly.

Be aware though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will be totally water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.


Wrong Fuel in Car in CR0 Postcode - Croydon Misfueling

A lady had come to a halt on a road, Croydon just after having put the wrong fuel in her car. She was crying and fairly distressed as she had put £45 of petrol in her diesel car. When she contacted us we made an effort to calm her as best we could, encouraging her that it would be fine. When we reached her she was no longer upset and was pretty fascinated in watching our fuel drainer perform the fuel drain on her light blue Austin Mini Cooper.

Tales from our own Croydon employees:

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Croydon

We were called by a gentleman whose bright white Skoda Octavia had conked out on a road after a misfuel. "I got the pumps mixed up and pumped the wrong fuel in my car in error. You guys arrived and sorted out the issue right after my vehicle died." We drained the wrong fuel from the diesel tank and flushed the fuel lines completely afterwards and the motorist was able to carry on with his deliveries.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Croydon - Fuel Rescue Croydon

A motorist employed in Croydon called us shortly after she had tried to get her misfueled automobile to her office. She had filled unleaded in her diesel yellow Alfa Romeo164 and, like many prior to her, thought that she could simply fill her vehicle with diesel and it'd run no problem. The car was chugging and then it cut out when she reached the the front of her work. We promptly went to work on the fuel drain after she called and had it fixed in one hour while she was at work. She came outside soon after and thanked us saying, "I'm really happy you sorted my car."

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.
