The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to take care of in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel may contribute to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both circumstances very swiftly.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to parking bay we can access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.

Ahhh, that was a great night of sleep! 7:00 am on a sunny Tuesday and we were on the way to assist an older lady who had put petrol in her diesel bright red Renault Espace in Haugh. She told us that she had left the filling station forecourt and was stranded on a country road along the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got her location punched straight into the Satnav and arrived within an hour. I reached the location and removed the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. While I was working she told me, "I have been getting quite absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the car needing diesel because I had just got it a short while ago after my previous one, which I'd owned for more than 25 years, finally died on me". I finished the drain and she offered me a toffee and said thanks. What a delightful Lincolnshire lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car Lincolnshire - Petrol in Diesel Car Haugh

A young adult who had only passed his driving test had wrong fueled his green Volvo V40 by getting unleaded in the diesel at the petrol station in Haugh. He said, "This is just the second occasion I have put fuel in my vehicle from the time when I got it and I don't know what to do." He was also worried because his dad had just paid for the car. He came across our company on the web and so called it right away, frightened about what he needed to do. Our guy on the telephones told him that we would be with him in forty-five minutes and to not touch the car while he waited.

This was certainly what is called an unsociable time to be awake. It was around sunrise and hardly anyone was about. It had become fairly quiet up to now, and me and Brian were relaxing browsing several old articles. It was a rare quiet hour in Lincolnshire. It was that calm that the instant the telephone eventually rang I jumped with surprise! The customer on the phone stated: "I ended my night shift and incredibly filled the wrong fuel in a diesel light blue Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG in error". I instructed him to let us know where exactly he was located and we left, ending up in Haugh only 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned from the motor and he thanked us profusely for showing up so quickly. While we were returning to base we found two women at the side of the highway who looked like they suffered a flat tyre. As a result we pulled over to change it, to their delight.

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.
