The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant matter to deal with in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel may well cause idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both situations fairly swiftly.

You should know however that if the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Hem Heath

Now I'm not actually very enthusiastic about carrying out work on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I had just come away from the family after having a lovely lunch made by the missus, and I was on my way to assist a gentleman because he put the wrong fuel in his uncle's VW Touareg 2. He was only in Hem Heath and so I was with him quickly. Just as I arrived behind the vehicle and stepped out he told me "Praise the Almighty! I had my attention on other things and failed to realise I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. I need to know if I brought on some damage because of starting it?" I explained that generally there probably should not be harm and also that I would personally drain the wrong fuel quickly. Needless to say I removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle and filled up with some suitable fuel, and then yet another content customer had the ability to carry on with his ride without the fuss. He couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and that is what tends to make operating on Sundays in Staffordshire just a tiny bit less painful for me!

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.
