The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly an important situation to deal with in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel may well trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both cases fairly quickly.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and unusable.

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night of sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a bright Wednesday and I was off to assist an elder woman after she put petrol in her diesel pristine Peugeot 508 in Hartburn. She informed us that she had left the filling station and stranded along a rural lane on the way to see her grandchildren. I popped the location in the TomTom and was on-scene inside an hour. I got to the destination and removed the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. While I was doing it she told me, "I have been getting rather absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel since I had just purchased it a few days ago when my previous car, which I used for over 30 years, eventually gave up the ghost". I got the drain completed and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. What a precious Northumberland lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car Northumberland - Petrol in Diesel Car Hartburn

Now I am certainly not excessively hot for working weekends, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I had only just come away from the wife and kids filled with a fantastic Sunday roast made for me by the better half, and I was on my way to sort out a gentleman who had put the wrong petrol in his stylish Cadillac Brougham. He was only in Hartburn thus it wouldn't be a long time before I got to him. Just as I arrived behind the vehicle and got out he explained to me "Thank God! I incredibly had my mind on something else and didn't ascertain I'd put diesel in my petrol car. Have I created damage because of running it?" I said that there shouldn't be any kind of problems and also I'd personally drain the fuel at once. It goes without saying that I drained the fuel from the car and filled up with some correct fuel, and yet another contented customer was able to continue on their trip without the need for bother.

This was what we call an unsociable time to be on the road. It was about sunrise and noone was around. It had been rather dead up to now, and Ryan and I were relaxing perusing a number of old newspapers. It was an unusual peaceful hour in Northumberland. It was so relaxing that the instant my mobile eventually rang it made me jump! The customer on the opposite end told me: "I've ended my evening shift and incredibly filled petrol in the racing green Jeep Commander". We instructed him to inform us just where he was located and we set off, arriving in Hartburn 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the engine. He said thank you for arriving so fast. As we were heading back to base we saw two girls on the edge of the street who looked like they had a flat tyre. Obviously we got out and helped them change it, much to their delight.

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.
