The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to handle in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel may bring about idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both cases very simply.

Remember though that any time the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a car parking bay we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've successfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

A gentleman had stopped near a street in Milton under Wychwood. His trusty Isuzu Ascender car had stopped running and he had no clue what was awry until eventually he noticed he had put petrol in his diesel car. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he explained to us: "I can't believe that I did not realise that I put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had gotten virtually no sleep the evening before and that could have been the key reason why.

This was the graveyard shift. It was about dawn and almost noone was stirring. It had become rather uneventful up to now, and me and Brian were relaxing perusing a couple of old papers. This was a rare quiet hour in Oxfordshire. It was that peaceful that when the phone inevitably rang I jumped! The motorist explained: "I have just ended my night shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in my canary yellow Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500". I told him to tell us where the vehicle was located and we headed out, ending up in Milton under Wychwood 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was extracted from the motor. He said thanks for coming so promptly. While we were returning to the office we saw two young women at the side of the highway who appeared to have a puncture. As a result we stopped to help them change it, much to their elation.

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.
