The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally a significant situation to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel will often contribute to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances very simply.

Be aware however that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel container lying in the rear of your garden with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in Hampshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a storage shed, providing we can get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

As I was doing the work she told me, "I have been getting relatively forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car taking diesel as I had only bought it a few days ago because my previous car, which I had for about 30 years, finally gave up the ghost". I finished the drain and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. What a pleasant Hampshire woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Locks Heath

I wouldn't like breaking down in a automobile filled with the wrong fuel halfway down the street. One of our last customers who filled up her tank with the wrong fuel (mum's Suzuki Verona) in Locks Heath suffered with precisely that type of issue: "You probably know that I wrongly put petrol in my diesel car like a perfect plonker. I was so stressed about the wrong fuel in my car that I was besides myself. But I shouldn't have concerned myself since you were excellent in fixing it."

This really was the graveyard shift. It was around 3:30am and almost noone was about. It had been rather dead up to now, and Ray and I were sitting around looking at a couple of old papers. That was an unusual tranquil hour in Hampshire. Actually it was in fact that tranquil that the instant the phone rang it made me start! The motorist on the opposite end told me: "I completed my evening shift and incredibly put petrol in a friend's Citron DS4 in error". We told him to let us know where exactly he was and we hit the road, reaching him in Locks Heath an hour later. The wrong fuel was extracted from the motor. He said many thanks for getting there so promptly. As we were coming back home we noticed two ladies at the side of the highway who looked like they suffered a flat tyre. As a result we pulled up to help them change it, 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.
