The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to address in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can easily bring about idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both cases pretty swiftly.

Take note however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.

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.
