The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually an important issue to address in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel tank will result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases fairly easily.

Keep in mind though that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

We will get out to refill your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) and refill your automobile.

Wrong Fuel in Car in BA2 Postcode - Southdown Misfueling

A fairly concerned driver called us from the BP filling station at Somerset to advise us that he put petrol in to his diesel grey Toyota MR2; he wasn't exactly sure how he'd done it. We advised him it was no concern and before long had our specialist out to him to clean the contaminated fuel from his car. Having taken away the bad fuel, he was almost immediately back rolling again. He told us; "I am honestly shocked I put the wrong fuel in my car. And the man who came to carry out the fuel drain was extremely nice - he did not make me appear stupid."

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Southdown

It must be horrible conking out in a vehicle contaminated with the wrong fuel in the middle of the street. Recently a customer who put the incorrect fuel in her car (yellow Peugeot 407) in Southdown suffered literally that type of trouble: "WrongFuelSOS.com's man helped me remove my motor from the live lane. He drained it and had it functioning after only thirty-five minutes. Couldn't recommend you more."

Wrong Fuel Doctor Southdown - Fuel Rescue Southdown

This was exactly what is called an unsociable hour to be up. It was about sunrise and nobody was stirring. It had been rather dead up to now, and Ryan and I were loafing looking through a couple of old articles. It was an unusual restful hour in Somerset. It was that peaceful that when my mobile ultimately rang it made me start! The customer stated: "I've ended my night shift and incredibly put the wrong fuel in the light blue Honda Civic GX". I got him to let us know where exactly the car was and we headed out, reaching him in Southdown not as much as an hour later. The fuel was taken out from the vehicle. He thanked us for getting there so promptly. As we were coming back to the office we noticed two young women on the edge of the street who seemed to have a flat tyre. Accordingly we got out 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.
