The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Hartley Wintney (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to re-fill your automobile any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill your car or truck. They are also able to deal with the usual issues that may accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely an important situation to address in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel can cause idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both circumstances rather expediently.

Bear in mind however that if ever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be completely water-logged and useless.

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.
