The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important issue to handle in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both situations rather expediently.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be totally water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Marcham

We not too long ago received a call about a guy who had put the wrong fuel in his stylish Seat Toledo in Marcham. He had come to a stand-still on the street. "After putting unleaded in my diesel car I didn't discover the dilemma until I ground to a halt. You removed the wrong fuel from my car and got it running again. I was impressed because of both how quick you were and your price". Of course we were on-scene rapidly and purged the engine after flushing all of the unleaded from the diesel tank. On arrival the engineer said the driver was raging, but was grinning his face off after the fuel drain.

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 VAT 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.
