The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly an important situation to take care of in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank may well cause idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases very swiftly.

Be aware however that if the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Ahhh, that was a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a warm Tuesday and we were off to help an elder lady who put petrol in her diesel customised Mazda929 in Kirtling. I had been informed she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and was broken down along a rural road on route to visit her grandchildren. I punched the location into the TomTom and got there inside an hour or so. I turned up at the vehicle and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. While I was doing it she explained, "I have been becoming quite forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car working with diesel as I had only bought it a short while ago because my previous car, which I had for over twenty years, eventually stopped working". I got the job done and she gave me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. What a lovely Cambridgeshire lady!

A man had stopped off a street in Kirtling. His mate's VW Tiguan car had stopped operating and he'd no clue what was faulty till he realised he put petrol in his diesel vehicle.

He stated that he had gotten zero rest the day before and that could have been the key reason why.

A lady employed in Kirtling phoned us shortly after she had managed to get her wrong fueled vehicle to the office. She had put the wrong fuel in her diesel mum's Volkswagen Eurovan and, like plenty before her, assumed that she could basically fill the vehicle with diesel and it would be okay. The car was coughing and then it cut out when she reached the the front of her office. We promptly started on the fuel drain following her call and got it fixed in an hour or so whilst she was in the office.

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.
