The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to address in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol will likely produce idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations fairly simply.

Bear in mind that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

I'd had a terrific afternoon fishing during my off day and felt delighted the next working day as I set off to aid a young couple who were vacationing in Long Green. They'd conked out after inserting petrol in their beloved Land Rover Discovery, and the car was roughly half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their location and laughed while I listened to the girl telling off her hubby for actually being so foolish. "Exactly how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I tried to explain that this situation occurs on daily basis in Suffolk and that it is absolutely nothing to worry about, but he all the same got an earful. Unlucky guy. Anyway, I extracted the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. Watching them drive down the road I shouted farewell and thought about what my wife would ask me if ever I made the exact same error... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car Suffolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Long Green

Now I am not so keen on working on weekends, and a while back was the same. I'd just departed the family after a tasty roast prepared by the wife, and I was on the way to sort out a guy after he had filled the wrong petrol in his white Jaguar XJ. He was somewhere in Long Green and so it wasn't a long time before I reached him. Just as I drove up at the car and got busy draining he explained to me "Praise God! I foolishly had my attention on other things and did not realise I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought about some harm as a result of driving it?" I determined there probably should not be any kind of problems and also I'd get the fuel drained at once for him. It goes without saying that I got the fuel drained from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and then another contented customer was able to continue his traveling without the need for bother. He couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and this tends to make working on weekends in Suffolk just a small bit easier in my opinion!

This was exactly what we call the graveyard shift. It was close to sunrise and hardly anyone was around. It had been rather quiet up to now, and me and Ryan were sitting about reading a couple of old papers. It was an uncommon peaceful hour in Suffolk. It was so tranquil that the moment my mobile ultimately rang it made me start! The motorist on the other end said: "I have completed my evening shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in the diesel maroon Citron Picasso". I got him to let us know just where the vehicle was and we set off, getting to him in Long Green no more than half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the motor. He said many thanks for coming out so fast. As we were coming back to the depot we saw two young women on the edge of the road who looked like they had a puncture. Obviously we pulled up to change it, to their elation.

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.
