The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to parking spot we should be able to reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel tank will produce idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations fairly simply.

Take note though that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

A woman from Selsey with her children in her diesel dad's Hyundai Elantra had filled her car with £40 of petrol at the Co Op petrol station. She contacted us crying and extremely distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel car before and didn't know what might happen to her vehicle because of it. We told her that everything would be fine and that she would be back up and running very quickly. When we arrived she was still distressed but as our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she noticed that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She soon enough cheered up and was up and running saying, "I just can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Particularly with the kids on board."

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.
