The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely an important condition to take care of in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can potentially lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations fairly quickly.

Remember however that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel Assist Codmore Hill - Wrong Fuel in Car Codmore Hill

I'd had a perfect day fishing on the weekend and was feeling delighted with myself the following day as I was en route to assist a young family holidaying in Codmore Hill. They'd stopped after filling the wrong fuel in their mint green Fiat, and were close to an hour away. I arrived at their location and laughed to myself as I heard to the lady chastising her partner for turning out to be so daft. "Just how could you conceivably be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to tell her that this happens frequently in West Sussex and that it is nothing to stress about, and yet he all the same had an earful by his better half. Unfortunate chap. Anyhow, I extracted the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. While they drove away I mouthed good bye and thought about what my missus would ask me if ever I did the same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Codmore Hill - Fuel Rescue Codmore Hill

This was the night shift. It was around dawn and almost noone was about. It had become pretty dead until now, and me and Paul were relaxing reading through a number of old newspapers. That was an unusual tranquil hour in West Sussex. It was indeed that calm that the moment my mobile inevitably rang it made me jump! The motorist on the other end stated: "I have only just finished my night shift and incredibly filled the wrong fuel in a diesel uncle's VW GLI by mistake". We instructed him to inform us where the vehicle was situated and we set off, arriving in Codmore Hill only half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleared from the vehicle and he said many thanks for getting there so promptly. While we were returning to the depot we noticed two women on the edge of the road who appeared to have a puncture. So we got out to help them 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 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.
