The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important matter to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can easily lead to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both cases fairly expediently.

You should know that if the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and ineffective.

We can help to refill your car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home.

A woman employed in Wick phoned us shortly after she had managed to get her misfueled automobile to her office. She had filled petrol in her diesel light green Mazda626 and, like countless prior to her, assumed that she would be able to just fill her vehicle with diesel and it would run fine. The engine was coughing and then it cut out when she reached the entrance of her office. We soon started on the fuel drain after she called and had it repaired within one hour whilst she was working. She came out afterwards and thanked us saying, "I'm very glad you repaired my vehicle."

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.
