The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious issue to handle in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel will likely bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both situations pretty simply.

Take note that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
