The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel can easily lead to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both circumstances fairly easily.

Keep in mind though that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be totally water-logged and unusable.

Ahhh, that was a great night of sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a rainy Monday and I was on the way to assist an old lady who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel clean white Lexus IS-F in Hanford. I had been told she drove away from the filling station forecourt and was broken down in a rural road on the way to visit her grandchildren. I popped her location straight into the TomTom and arrived within an hour. I got to the car and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she said to me, "Now I'm becoming fairly forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car using diesel as I'd only got it a short while ago after my old one, which I'd had for in excess of 30 years, eventually broke down". I finished the job and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. What a precious Staffordshire 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.
