The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can easily trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both cases very expediently.

You should know though that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.

We can come to re-fill your automobile if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home.

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.
