The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to handle in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can easily result in idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both situations quite easily.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

We have been called out to several privately owned and business premises in Tyne and Wear for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Wrong Fuel in Car Tyne and Wear - Petrol in Diesel Car Donwell

I'm not necessarily so interested in running on weekends, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I'd only just departed the family after having a magnificent dinner prepared for us by the better half, and I was en route to help a gentleman because he filled the wrong petrol in his metallic green BMW Z4 M. He was somewhere in Donwell thus I was there almost immediately. Just as I pulled up behind the vehicle and started work he told me "Thank God! I incredibly had my mind on other stuff and didn't grasp that I'd put diesel in my petrol car. Is it possible I caused any damage by simply driving it?" I revealed that generally there should not be any problems and also that I would get the wrong fuel drained immediately. It goes without saying that I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and put in the correct fuel, and so another pleased motorist could carry on with his traveling with no difficulty. The gentleman did not stop saying thanks to me, and this can make carrying out work on weekends in Tyne and Wear just that tiny bit easier in my opinion!

A customer employed in Donwell contacted us after she managed to get her misfueled car to her office. She had filled unleaded in her diesel metallic green Peugeot 508 and, like many people prior to her, imagined that she could just fill up her tank with diesel and it'd run fine. The car was chugging and then it cut out when she got to the the front of her office. We promptly went to work on the fuel drain after she called and got it sorted in one hour whilst she was in the office. She came out when we finished and thanked us stating, "I'm really happy you repaired my vehicle."

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.
