The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant matter to address in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can certainly produce idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with properly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both cases pretty swiftly.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car parking spot we are able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

This really was what we call an unsociable time to be awake. It was roughly 3:30 in the morning and noone was around. It had been pretty dead thus far, and me and Ray were relaxing browsing a few old newspapers. It was a rare peaceful moment in Bromley. It was in fact so peaceful that the instant my mobile eventually rang I leaped with surprise! The person said: "I concluded my night shift and stupidly poured petrol in the bright white Volvo S40". We instructed him to inform us where he was situated and we left, reaching him in Lower Sydenham 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was taken out from the car. He thanked us profusely for coming out so quickly. While we were going back home we saw two girls on the side of the road who appeared to have a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled up to help them change it, much to their elation.

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.
