The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important situation to handle in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel can potentially result in idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases fairly expediently.

Remember that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one is going to be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

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.

  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.
