The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally an important condition to address in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank will often cause idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both circumstances quite expediently.

Take note however that any time the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Strand - Fuel Rescue Strand

This really was an unsociable time to be on the road. It was close to 2am and almost noone was around. It had been quite dead thus far, and me and Mark were sitting about looking at several old papers. This was a rare peaceful hour in Gloucestershire. Actually it was indeed that peaceful that the instant my mobile finally rang it made me jump! The voice on the opposite end stated: "I've finished my evening shift and incredibly put the wrong fuel in my mum's BMW 645 in error". I told him to inform us exactly where he was and we hit the road, ending up in Strand an hour or so later. The fuel was taken out from the engine and he said many thanks for getting there so quickly. While we were going back to the office we noticed two young ladies at the edge of the street who appeared to have a flat. Accordingly we pulled over to change it, much 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.
