The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious matter to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel may well cause idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both situations very easily.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one is going to be completely wet and unusable.

I'd had a terrific evening golfing on my holiday and was feeling delighted the following day as I was en route to aid a new family who were on holiday in Findon. They conked out after inserting the wrong fuel in their green Cadillac Fleetwood, and were about half an hour's drive away. I arrived at their location and laughed to myself while I listened to the woman telling off her spouse for actually being so stupid. "Just how could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I attempted to tell her that this occurs constantly in West Sussex and that it's absolutely nothing to be anxious about, and yet he yet still had an ear bashing by his wife. Unfortunate guy. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed all the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. As they drove away I waved hasta la vista and considered what her indoors would do to me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would never hear the end of it!
