The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel is likely to produce idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both circumstances very swiftly.

Take note that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Wrong Fuel Assist Frosterley - Wrong Fuel in Car Frosterley

I enjoyed a wonderful afternoon fishing during the weekend and was feeling cheerful with myself the following working day as I set off to aid a young family away in Frosterley. They broken down after putting diesel into their raspberry red Volkswagen Eurovan, and were about half an hour away. I got there at their location and smirked as I listened to the lady telling her partner off for actually being so daft. "Just how could you actually be able to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this kind of thing goes on all the time in County Durham and that it's really nothing at all to be anxious about, but he yet still had an earful by his wife. I felt genuine sympathy for the guy. In any case, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive away I waved bon voyage and pondered on what my missus would ask me if I did the very same thing... I would never ever live it down!

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 VA 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.
