The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol will likely produce idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases very quickly.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and useless.

They'd pulled over after inserting petrol in their grass green Jaguar S-Type, and the car was approximately an hour away. I got there at their car and laughed to myself while I listened to the wife berating her spouse for being so daft. "Exactly how could you actually find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this takes place quite frequently in North Yorkshire and that it is absolutely nothing to fret about, nonetheless he still had an earful. Unfortunate chap. Anyhow, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the correct fuel. While watching them drive away I waved farewell and thought about what my wife would tell me if ever I made the exact same error... I would personally never live it down!

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
