The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be an important issue to deal with in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel will likely trigger idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove than water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases quite quickly.

Take note that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one is going to be completely wet and useless.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container placed at the back of your premises full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and business properties in Rutland to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in an outbuilding, if we can get to it, we are able to drain it.


Wrong Fuel in Car in PE9 Postcode - Aldgate Misfueling

Just had a good night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a gloomy Tuesday and we were off to help an old lovely lady after she had put petrol in her diesel compact Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 in Aldgate. I had been told she had left the petrol station forecourt and pulled up along a rural lane on the way to visit her grandchildren. I got her location plugged straight into the TomTom and got there inside an hour or so. I turned up at the location and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing it she said, "I'm getting rather absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel since I'd only acquired it a short while ago because my previous car, which I had for over 30 years, finally gave up the ghost". I completed the drain and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. What a precious Rutland lady!

Therefore, in case you have filled your petrol car with diesel, or put the wrong fuel in your diesel motor vehicle anywhere in Rutland, speak to us immediately. Our expert mechanics are ready and waiting for your call.

Wrong Fuel in Car Rutland - Petrol in Diesel Car Aldgate

Now I am not necessarily excessively excited about working weekends, and a week ago was the same. I had just departed the wife and kids filled with a wonderful lunch made for me by the better half, and I was on my way to deal with a gentleman because he put the wrong petrol in his cyan Smart Car. He was only in Aldgate and so I arrived there quickly. Just as I arrived at the car and got out he said to me "Praise God! I had my thoughts on other considerations and failed to realise I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it possible I brought about some damage simply by starting it?" I revealed that there should not be any kind of damage and that I'd remove the wrong fuel as quickly as possible. Needless to say I removed the fuel from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and then one more content client was able to carry on with his traveling with no difficulty. He could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and this makes operating on weekends in Rutland a tiny bit easier for me personally!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Aldgate - Fuel Rescue Aldgate

A driver from Aldgate with a full car of kids in her diesel creamy white Renault Espace had put £20 of petrol at the BP service station. She called us crying and extremely worried as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel and did not know what would happen to her vehicle because of it. We reassured her that everything should be fine and that she would be back up and running quickly. When we arrived on scene she was visible distressed but as our technician began work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she noticed that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She soon enough brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I just can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my car! Specifically with the kids 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 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.
