The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel is likely to result in idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both cases pretty simply.

Take note that so long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car Norfolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Tattersett

We fairly recently had a phone call from a man who put the incorrect fuel in his metallic red Mercedes-Benz R-Class in Tattersett. He had come to a stand-still on the street. "After putting unleaded in my diesel car I didn't notice the problem before it ground to a halt. You removed the wrong fuel from my car and had it functioning again. I was amazed by both your call-out time and your pricing". Needless to say we got there rapidly and purged the engine after draining all of the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank. The client was over the moon by the time we were done and he drove off satisfied and content.

A driver from Tattersett with her children in her diesel blue Volvo V70 had put £50 of petrol at the filling station. She contacted us crying and very worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel previously and did not know what might happen to her vehicle . We told her that all should be alright and that she would be back on the road very quickly. When we arrived she was still upset but while our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she discovered that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She quickly brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I really can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Especially with the kids on board."

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.
