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 without question a significant condition to deal with in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel is going to result in idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both situations very swiftly.

Bear in mind that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car or truck parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

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.
