The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to deal with in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel will often trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both cases rather quickly.

Keep in mind though that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to parking spot we can access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

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.
