The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to address in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel tank will result in idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both situations pretty quickly.

Remember however that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Ahhh, that was a quality night of sleep! It was 7:00 on a warm Wednesday and I was on the way to assist an old lady who put petrol in her diesel company's Mitsubishi Precis in Little Load. She informed us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and was pulled up in a rural road on route to pay a visit to her family. I punched her location into the TomTom and arrived in less than an hour or so. I arrived at the location and extracted the wrong fuel out of the car. Whilst I was doing it she explained, "I'm getting rather forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car working with diesel since I had just bought it a week ago when my old one, which I had owned for in excess of 30 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I got the drain done and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thank you. Such a delightful Somerset lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Little Load

Now I'm certainly not overly excited about doing the job on weekends, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I had just left home after eating a superb roast made for us by the wife, and I was on my way to assist a fellow after he had filled the wrong petrol in his aunt's Ford Focus. He was located in Little Load hence I was with him soon. Just as I pulled up at the car and got busy draining he told me "Thank God! I stupidly had my concentration on other stuff and failed to ascertain I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I brought on any problems through starting it?" I said that there should not be problems and also I'd remove the contaminated fuel immediately for him. Naturally I removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and put in the appropriate fuel, and so another content client was able to carry on with their journey without difficulty. The gentleman could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what makes working on Sundays in Somerset just that little bit less painful for me!

It truly was an unsociable time to be awake. It was roughly dawn and almost noone was stirring. It had been pretty dead so far, and John and I were relaxing perusing a number of old papers. It was a rare tranquil time in Somerset. Actually it was indeed so calm that the instant the phone ultimately rang I leaped! The motorist on the opposite end told me: "I've only just finished my night shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in the expensive Vauxhall Insignia". I instructed him to let us know just where he was and we left, getting to him in Little Load less than an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleared from the motor and he said thanks for coming out so quickly. As we were coming back to the office we spotted two young women at the side of the highway who looked like they had a puncture. So we pulled over to change it, 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 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.
