The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to take care of in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel is likely to result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of fully, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both circumstances rather quickly.

Be aware though that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car in BR6 Postcode - Farnborough Misfueling

Just had a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a sunny Wednesday and I was on my way to help an older lady who put the wrong fuel in her diesel husband's VW Touareg in Farnborough. She told us that she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and stranded on a country lane on the way to visit her godchildren. I punched her location into the TomTom and was on-scene inside an hour. I turned up at the location and drained the wrong fuel out of the car. While I was doing the work she said to me, "I am becoming fairly forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel since I'd just purchased it a few days ago right after my old one, which I'd owned for over thirty years, finally died". I got the job completed and she offered me a peppermint and said thanks. What a pleasant Bromley woman!

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.
