The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to address in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel may well cause idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both circumstances very expediently.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel.

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.
