The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!




Other Fuel Services

Other than wrong fuel in a car, we also deliver other relevant services like disposal of contaminated fuel. Most people, however, do not know that we do and that it is not an easy task. For starters, you have to be tested and authorized by the Environment agency before you can even try to dispose of contaminated fuel and this in no way assures that you will have the capacity and discipline to follow the strict code of conduct and regulations spelled out by the company. This service is readily accessible to both private and commercial customers. Therefore, your wish is our command and we'll happily dump any contaminated fuel whether it's in a container, trailer load, or a fixed large capacity tank. All this is done both safely and legally, not to mention at really competitive prices.

We also solve other fuel contamination problems such as the presence of water in your car's fuel system and AdBlue inadvertently poured straight into the fuel tank. AdBlue is a substance that comes highly recommended in cleaning emissions in your diesel engine, therefore, making it run cleaner. Remember that it should be added in the proper way in order to work in an efficient manner. Not many people understand the risk of AdBlue contamination as evidenced by a large number of people putting AdBlue directly into fuel tanks.

When your engine system gets contaminated by any liquid such as water or AdBlue, take advantage of our proficient and professional team of experts.

Wrong Fuel in Car Thurlstone - Petrol in Diesel Car Thurlstone

What a great night's sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a bright Wednesday and we were on the way to assist an older lady after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel Thurlstone. I'd been advised she had left the filling station forecourt and stranded in a rural road along the way to see her godchildren. I plugged her location into the Satnav and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I got to the car and removed the contaminated fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing the work she told me, "Now I'm getting quite forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel because I'd just purchased it a few days back when my former one, which I had owned for in excess of 25 years, eventually gave up the ghost". I got the job done and she gave me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a lovely lady!

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 VAT 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.
