The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a serious situation to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can lead to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both circumstances very swiftly.

Take note that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.

So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking bay we can reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station and was stranded along a country road en route to visit her family. I popped the location straight into the Satnav and was with her within an hour or so. I got to the location and extracted the wrong fuel in the car car. While I was doing the work she explained, "I'm getting somewhat forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle needing diesel as I had only acquired it several days ago right after my former one, which I had had for about 25 years, finally died". I got the drain completed and she gave me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a pleasant Somerset woman!

I had enjoyed a terrific day fishing on my holiday and was feeling pleased with myself the following working day as I headed out to help a new couple who were holidaying in Yarford. They conked out after adding petrol in their partner's Mercedes-Benz S-Class, and the car was close to half an hour's travel away. I showed up at their car and smiled as I listened to the gal telling her husband off for actually being so daft. "Exactly how could you even find a way to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this situation goes on all the time in Somerset and that it's nothing to stress about, however he all the same got an earful by his better half. Unlucky boy. Anyways, I removed all of the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some correct fuel. While they drove off I mouthed bon voyage and thought about what her indoors would say to me if ever I made the same error... I would personally never live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Yarford

Now I am not necessarily very inclined to doing work on weekends, and the other day was the same. I'd just left the family after eating a superb lunch cooked by the wife, and I was off to help a man after he had filled the incorrect fuel in his rust red Jaguar XF. He was situated in Yarford and so it wouldn't be a long time before I reached him. Just as I arrived at the car and started work he told me "Thank the Lord! I stupidly had my thoughts on other things and didn't realise I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it likely I caused any harm simply by running it?" I determined generally there probably should not be any harm and also I'd get the fuel drained right away for him. As expected I removed the contaminated fuel from the car and put in the correct fuel, and so another content motorist had the ability to continue his traveling without any fuss. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and this makes carrying out work on weekends in Somerset that little bit less painful for me personally!

A young lady driving in Yarford phoned us as soon as she had tried to get her wrong fueled vehicle to her office. She had put the wrong fuel in her diesel mum's Audi Coupe GT and, like many before her, believed that she would be able to basically fill her vehicle with diesel and it'd be fine. The engine was spluttering and then it cut out when she got to the entrance of her work. We soon went to work on the fuel drain after she called and had it fixed inside 60 minutes whilst she was in the office. She came outside afterwards and thanked us stating, "I'm really glad you fixed my vehicle."

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.
