The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important matter to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol will likely bring about idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both situations pretty simply.

You should know that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car Northumberland - Petrol in Diesel Car Halton Shields

Now I'm not necessarily too enthusiastic about running Sundays, and last week was the same. I'd only just departed the wife and kids following a lovely dinner cooked for us by the wife, and I was on the way to sort out a man after he put the incorrect petrol in his classic Cadillac Fleetwood. He was only in Halton Shields so I arrived on scene quickly. As I drove up behind the car and started work he told me "Praise the Lord! I had my thoughts on other stuff and did not realise I'd put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I inflicted damage as a result of driving it?" I said there probably should not be any problems and also I would get the contaminated fuel drained as soon as possible for him. As expected I got the fuel drained from the car and filled up with some correct fuel, and one more contented motorist was able to continue their traveling without hassle. He could hardly stop thanking me, and that is exactly what can make earning a living on weekends in Northumberland just that little 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.
