The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually an important situation to deal with in an automobile - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol is likely to cause idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations quite easily.

Remember however that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

What a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a warm Sunday and we were off to assist an old lovely lady after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel dark blue Peugeot Partner in Skelton. I had been informed she drove away from the filling station forecourt and was broken down on a rural lane en route to see her grandchildren. I got her location punched into the Satnav and was on-scene inside an hour. I turned up at the car and removed the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. As I was working she told me, "Now I'm getting fairly forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel as I'd just got it a short while ago because my former car, which I'd owned for in excess of twenty years, finally gave up the ghost". I got the job done and she gifted me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. What a lovely North Yorkshire lady!

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.
