The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important issue to take care of in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel may bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations rather quickly.

Keep in mind though that whenever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Waste Fuel Disposal

We have been called out to many private and commercial properties in Greater Manchester to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a storage shed, if we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.

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.
