The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant issue to handle in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel may produce idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both circumstances very simply.

Remember that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car in BS39 Postcode - Pensford Misfueling

What a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a warm Sunday and we were en route to help an elder lovely lady after she had put petrol in her diesel apricot Audi TT in Pensford. She told us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and broken down on a backwater lane on the way to see her grandchildren. I got her location punched in the Satnav and got there within an hour or so. I turned up at the stricken lady and drained the wrong fuel out of the car. As I was doing it she told me, "I'm getting rather forgetful in my old age and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel because I'd only just purchased it several days ago after my other car, which I used for more than twenty years, inevitably died". I finished the job and she offered me a peppermint and said thank you. Such a lovely Somerset lady!

We are properly compliant and insured and thus you recognise that the car is in safe hands. No matter whether you are in an old banger or a new high end vehicle we can certainly help you.

Wrong Fuel Assist Pensford - Wrong Fuel in Car Pensford

I had enjoyed a perfect afternoon fishing during the weekend and was feeling satisfied with myself the next working day as I set off to assist a new family vacationing in Pensford. They had pulled over after inserting petrol into their pristine Skoda Fabia, and the car was roughly an hour away. I turned up at their car and smiled while I heard to the lady chastising her hubby for turning out to be so silly. "Precisely how could you even find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to clarify that this comes to pass on a regular basis in Somerset and that it is nothing at all to be anxious about, but he all the same got his ear bent. Poor chap. At any rate, I removed all the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the right fuel. While they drove off I shouted goodbye and thought about what my missus would say to me if ever I did the very same thing... I'd personally never ever live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Pensford

We not too long ago got a phone call about a man who had put the incorrect fuel in his aunt's Peugeot 307 in Pensford. He had come to a stand-still on the street. "After inserting unleaded in my diesel car I didn't realize the issue until it ground to a halt. You drained the wrong fuel from my car and got it running again. I was amazed because of both your speed and your rates". As you can imagine we arrived on the scene punctually and flushed the engine after flushing all of the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank. On arrival our technician said the driver was raging, but was grinning his face off when we finished.

This was exactly what is called the graveyard shift. It was about 2 in the morning and nobody was around. It was pretty dead thus far, and Mark and I were sitting looking through a few old papers. This was an unusual tranquil time in Somerset. Actually it was indeed that quiet that when my mobile inevitably rang it made me start! The motorist told me: "I just concluded my overnight shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in a green Saab 9-3 in error". I instructed him to let us know just where the car was and we set off, getting to him in Pensford half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was extracted from the car and he thanked us for arriving so rapidly. As we were coming back home we saw two young women at the side of the street who appeared to have a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled over to help them change it, much 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.
