The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important matter to address in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can easily cause idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both situations pretty easily.

You should know though that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car Norfolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Antingham

Now I am not actually very enthusiastic about doing the job on weekends, and a week ago was the same. I had only just left the wife and kids filled with a tasty roast made for us by the missus, and I was on my way to deal with a guy because he put the wrong fuel in his modern Cadillac Sixty Special. He was only in Antingham so I arrived there very quickly. Just as I arrived behind the car and started work he explained to me "Thank the Almighty! I had my attention on stuff and failed to perceive I've put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I inflicted any problems as a result of running it?" I said that truth be told there shouldn't be harm and that I would drain the fuel quickly for him. Naturally I drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle and filled up with some suitable fuel, and then another contented motorist had the ability to carry on with their ride with no hassle. The man could not stop thanking me, and this is exactly what helps make working on weekends in Norfolk a tiny bit easier for me personally!

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.
