The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious issue to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel can potentially cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases rather expediently.

Remember that if the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.

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.
