The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

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

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can easily produce idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both situations rather simply.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car in ST6 Postcode - Newfield Misfueling

What a quality night's sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a rainy Wednesday and we were en route to help an elder lovely lady after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel cream Hyundai Accent in Newfield. I'd been advised she had left the filling station forecourt and broken down along a country road on route to see her godchildren. I popped the location into the TomTom and arrived within 60 minutes. I turned up at the vehicle and removed the contaminated fuel out of the car. Whilst I was working she explained, "I am becoming quite absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel seeing that I'd just got it a short while back when my former car, which I used for over twenty years, finally broke down". I got the job done and she gave me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. What a precious Staffordshire woman!

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.
