The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly an important condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel can produce idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both circumstances quite expediently.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of your garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many private and business properties in Worcestershire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps some containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can access it, we could certainly empty it for you.


Wrong Fuel in Car in WR10 Postcode - Netherton Misfueling

Just had a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a warm Sunday and we were en route to assist an older woman who put petrol in her diesel light blue VW Passat in Netherton. She told us that she drove away from the petrol station and was stranded on a country lane on route to visit her family. I popped her location into the Satnav and arrived in less than an hour. I turned up at the destination and drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she said to me, "I am becoming quite absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel seeing that I had only got it a week back when my old car, which I had for more than 30 years, inevitably broke down". I finished the job and she gifted me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. Such a lovely Worcestershire lady!

A teenager who had only just passed his driving test had misfueled his sombre grey Saab 9-3 by having petrol in the diesel car at the filling station near Netherton. He said, "This is only the second occasion I have filled up my car from the time when I bought it and I don't know how to handle it." He was scared because his father had only just paid for the car. He found us on the net and so called us right away, worried about what he ought to do. Our guy on the telephones advised him that we could be there in forty-five minutes and to not move the car while waiting. We finished the drain on his car and he stated how astonished he was that it was dealt with so rapidly and with not much problem .

This was most definitely the graveyard shift. It was about 2 in the morning and almost noone was about. It had been rather uneventful up to now, and Mark and I were relaxing reading through a number of old papers. It was an unusual peaceful hour in Worcestershire. Actually it was that quiet that the instant the phone inevitably rang I leaped! The customer stated: "I concluded my evening shift and stupidly poured petrol in the gorgeous Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class". We got him to tell us where the car was located and we headed out, ending up in Netherton less than an hour later. The wrong fuel was removed from the engine and he thanked us profusely for getting there so fast. As we were heading back home we found two ladies at the side of the highway who appeared to have a flat. Obviously we pulled up to change it, to their delight.

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.
