The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel can potentially trigger idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with fully, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both situations rather quickly.

Remember however that if the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will likely be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

Ahhh, that was a quality night's sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a gloomy Wednesday and I was on the way to help an old woman after she put petrol in her diesel winter grey Renault Twingo in Bromley. I'd been informed she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was broken down in a rural lane on the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got the location punched into the Satnav and was with her inside an hour. I reached the destination and drained the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing it she said to me, "I am becoming relatively forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car working with diesel because I'd only acquired it a few days back after my old one, which I'd had for in excess of 30 years, finally broke down". I got the job completed and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a pleasant Shropshire woman!

Therefore, in case you've filled your petrol automobile with diesel, or put petrol in your diesel vehicle just about anywhere in Shropshire, get in touch with us immediately. Our skilled mechanics are completely ready and waiting for your call.

I had a wonderful afternoon golfing on the weekend and was feeling delighted with myself the following day as I headed out to aid a new family holidaying in Bromley. They conked out after filling diesel into their son's BMW 330, and were about half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their position and smirked while I heard to the wife chastising her hubby for actually being so confused. "Precisely how could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this occurs everyday in Shropshire and that it is absolutely nothing to get worried about, nevertheless he all the same had an earful by his wife. Poor chap. Anyway, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted good-bye and pondered on what my wife would tell me if I made the very same error... I would personally never hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Bromley

I'm not so inclined to running Sundays, and a while back was no different. I'd only just left the wife and kids following a superb roast prepared by the missus, and I was on the way to deal with a fellow who had put the wrong fuel in his clean white Nissan Pathfinder. He was stationed in Bromley and so it wasn't a long time before I arrived with him. As I drove up at the car and got out he explained to me "Praise the Lord! I stupidly had my attention on something else and failed to grasp that I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I created some harm simply by driving it?" I said there shouldn't be problems and also I would personally get the contaminated fuel drained at once. It goes without saying that I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and filled it with the suitable fuel, and then one more delighted customer had the ability to continue his journey without fuss. He couldn't stop thanking me, and this is what makes operating on weekends in Shropshire that little easier for me personally!

A lady from Bromley with a full car of kids in her diesel precious Skoda Superb had filled her car with £42 of petrol at the Texaco petrol station. She phoned us sobbing and very distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and did not know what would happen to her car because of it. We told her that everything should be ok and that she would be ready to go quickly. When we arrived on scene she was still upset but while our engineer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she recognised that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't ruined. She soon brightened up and was on her way saying, "I just can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Specifically with the little ones on board."

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.
