The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant condition to address in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel can potentially contribute to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both cases rather swiftly.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will be completely water-logged and useless.

A young lady living in Easthopewood contacted us after she managed to get her wrong fueled car to her office. She had put the wrong fuel in her diesel light green Volkswagen GLI and, like plenty prior to her, imagined that she could basically top up her car with diesel and it'd be okay. The engine was coughing and then it stopped when she arrived at the entrance of her work. We soon went to work on the fuel drain following her call and got it fixed inside one hour while she was at the office. She came outside when we finished and thanked us saying, "I'm really pleased you repaired my car."

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.
