The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we can reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a significant issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel can easily produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases fairly simply.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and unusable.

A somewhat alarmed driver phoned us from the BP filling station at Worcestershire to inform us that he had put petrol in to his diesel green Kia Spectra5; he wasn't actually sure how he'd done it. We informed him it was no hassle and before long had our specialist with him to drain the incorrect fuel from his car. Having taken away the wrong fuel, he was soon back rolling again. He told us; "I am really flabbergasted I filled my car with the wrong fuel. And the guy who came to perform the fuel drain was incredibly nice - he did not make me look and feel like a fool."

It truly was an unsociable hour to be awake. It was roughly 2 in the morning and almost noone was around. It was pretty dead thus far, and me and Brian were sitting about reading a few old articles. This was an unusual restful moment in Worcestershire. It was that relaxing that the moment the telephone ultimately rang I jumped! The customer on the phone said: "I've just finished my evening shift and incredibly poured petrol in the bright yellow Peugeot 106". We told him to tell us where he was situated and we left, getting to him in Suckley Knowl under half an hour later. The wrong fuel was taken out from the motor and he thanked us for coming out so rapidly. As we were returning to the office we spotted two women on the side of the road who looked like they suffered a puncture. Accordingly we pulled up to 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.
