The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can potentially cause idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both circumstances pretty quickly.

Bear in mind though that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will be completely water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have successfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

He told us; "I can't believe I filled my car with the wrong fuel. And the person who appeared to take care of the fuel drain was genuinely very good - he didn't make me seem like an idiot."

This was the night shift. It was roughly sunrise and almost noone was stirring. It was rather dead until now, and Mark and I were loafing reading a number of old papers. That was an unusual peaceful moment in Somerset. Actually it was in fact that relaxing that the moment the phone rang I jumped! The customer told me: "I've only just ended my evening shift and incredibly filled the wrong fuel in my diesel red Ford Club Wagon in error". I asked him to tell us where the vehicle was and we left, getting to him in Stawell less than half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned from the vehicle and he said many thanks for showing up so quickly. While we were going back home we found two women on the edge of the street who seemed like they had a puncture. Obviously we pulled up and helped them 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.
