The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to take care of in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol can certainly bring about idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances quite quickly.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a car parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

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.
