The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to handle in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can potentially result in idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both circumstances rather easily.

Be aware though that any time the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near to an automobile parking bay we can reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have successfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.

Wrong Fuel Assist Ramsden - Wrong Fuel in Car Ramsden

I had a wonderful afternoon cycling on the weekend and was feeling satisfied the next morning as I set off to help a new couple who were holidaying in Ramsden. They'd broken down after inserting the wrong fuel in their burgundy red Audi A6, and were roughly an hour's travel away. I arrived at their location and smirked while I heard to the wife telling her spouse off for being so silly. "Just how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this happens on daily basis in Oxfordshire and that it's actually absolutely nothing to get worried about, but he all the same had an ear bashing by his better half. I felt genuine sympathy for the lad. In any case, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. As they drove down the road I shouted bon voyage and thought about what my missus would do to me if I made the same blunder... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Ramsden

We not too long ago received a phone call from a young man who had put the wrong fuel in his bright yellow Dodge Charger in Ramsden. He had ground to a halt on the road. "After inserting petrol in my diesel car I didn't realize the problem till the time we ground to a halt. You took the wrong fuel from my car and got it functioning again. I was amazed due to both your speed and your prices". Of course we appeared promptly and purged the engine after draining all the wrong fuel from the diesel tank. When he arrived the engineer said the client was scowling, but was grinning his face off afterwards.

A young lady from Ramsden with her little ones in her diesel baby blue Chevrolet Suburban had filled her car with £50 of petrol at the Sainsburys filling station. She contacted us crying and really upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and did not know what could happen to her car because of it. We reassured her that everything would be okay and that she would be back up and running very quickly. When we arrived on scene she was visible distressed but as our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she noticed that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She soon brightened up and was up and running saying, "I really can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my car! Especially with the children in the back."

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 VAT 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.
