The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant condition to address in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can certainly lead to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both situations quite simply.

Bear in mind though that so long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

What a fantastic night's sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a rainy Sunday and we were on my way to help an old lady after she put petrol in her diesel dark blue Hyundai Excel in Compton Durville. I'd been told she had left the petrol station forecourt and pulled up along a rural lane along the way to visit her godchildren. I plugged her location in the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour. I arrived at the location and drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle. While I was working she said to me, "I'm becoming quite forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car using diesel since I had only just acquired it a short while ago when my other one, which I'd used for over 25 years, eventually gave up the ghost". I got the drain completed and she gave me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. What a delightful Somerset woman!

A guy had conked out near a road in Compton Durville. His husband's Mitsubishi Eclipse engine had ceased running and he had no idea what was faulty till he noticed he put petrol in his diesel car.

He claimed that he had got no sleep the evening before and that could have been the reason why.

This was most definitely what is called the graveyard shift. It was close to dawn and nobody was stirring. It had been quite quiet until now, and me and Ryan were sitting reading a number of old newspapers. This was an unusual quiet hour in Somerset. It was indeed that tranquil that when the phone inevitably rang I jumped with surprise! The voice explained: "I just completed my evening shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in my metallic green Skoda Octavia by mistake". I asked him to let us know where exactly the vehicle was situated and we left, reaching him in Compton Durville no more than 30 minutes later. The fuel was cleared from the vehicle and he said many thanks for arriving so fast. While we were going back home we noticed two young ladies on the edge of the street who looked like they suffered a flat. Obviously we got out to change it, much to their delight.

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.
