The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in Staffordshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in a storage shed, as long as we can access it, we can empty it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important condition to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can certainly lead to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both situations quite quickly.

Remember that any time the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel Assist Jack Hayes - Wrong Fuel in Car Jack Hayes

I'd had a fantastic day cycling on my holiday and felt cheerful with myself the following morning as I headed out to assist a young family who were on vacation in Jack Hayes. They had stopped after adding petrol in their raspberry red Fiat Panda, and were approximately an hour's travel away. I emerged at their location and smirked while I listened to the girl telling her husband off for being so silly. "Precisely how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this problem occurs continuously in Staffordshire and that it's really nothing to worry about, however he in spite of everything got an earful. Unlucky lad. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed all the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some correct fuel. While watching them drive off I waved hasta la vista and pondered on what my wife would do to me if ever I made the same error... I would never ever hear the end of it!

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.
