The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to take care of in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both cases pretty simply.

You should know though that if the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

What a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a bright Wednesday and we were en route to help an older lady who put contaminated fuel in her diesel mustard yellow Audi Quattro in Kingswood. I'd been informed she drove away from the filling station forecourt and was stranded on a country road on route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I plugged her location into the Satnav and got there in less than an hour or so. I arrived at the vehicle and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing the work she said to me, "I'm getting somewhat forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car taking diesel since I'd only purchased it a week ago right after my other one, which I'd used for over twenty five years, finally stopped working". I got the job done and she offered me a toffee and said thanks a lot. Such a precious Surrey lady!

Now I am not that inclined to doing the job on Sundays, and a while back was no different. I'd just left the family filled with a tasty Sunday roast made for us by the better half, and I was en route to assist a guy after he had put the incorrect petrol in his Ferarri red Land Rover Defender 90. He was somewhere in Kingswood thus it wasn't a long time before I arrived with him. As I pulled up right behind the car and got out he told me "Thank the Lord! I had my thoughts on other stuff and didn't perceive I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. I need to know if I created any kind of harm as a result of starting it?" I stated truth be told there shouldn't be any damage and also I would personally get the fuel drained immediately. Needless to say I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and put in the suitable fuel, and then one more pleased client could carry on with their journey without the bother. He did not stop saying thanks to me, and that is exactly what can make working on weekends in Surrey just that tiny bit less painful for me personally!

A woman living in Kingswood called us after she had tried to get her misfueled automobile to her office. She had filled petrol in her diesel mom's Volvo and, like many before her, assumed that she would be able to simply fill her vehicle with diesel and it would run fine. The engine was chugging and then it cut out when she got to the the front of her work. We soon went to work on the fuel drain after she called and got it resolved inside an hour whilst she was in the office. She came outside later on and thanked us saying, "I'm extremely relieved you sorted my car."

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.
