The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually an important matter to handle in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will lead to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both circumstances fairly expediently.

You should know that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we can access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.


Wrong Fuel in Car in IP31 Postcode - Crownland Misfueling

The owner of a metallic silver BMW M Roadster was regretful that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle when he got as far as the road and it coughed and stopped. "I've gone and put the wrong fuel in my diesel vehicle," is what he said to us the initial time he called. In truth, when he initially phoned us he said he would like to research prices, but he phoned us back before long because our price and on-scene times were the best. Obviously, our engineer had him once again carrying out his deliveries within the time we'd cited.

A driver from Crownland with her little ones in her diesel dad's Cadillac SRX had filled her vehicle with £45 of petrol at the Tesco filling station. She called us weeping and very upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and didn't know what might happen to her car . We told her that the car should be alright and that she would be up and running quickly. When we arrived she was still distressed but while our technician got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she saw that help was at hand and her car wasn't ruined.

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.
