The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant condition to handle in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank will cause idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances pretty expediently.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Gunton (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Suffolk Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and refill your vehicle. They can also deal with the normal problems which can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as flat batteries due to over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel in Car in NR32 Postcode - Gunton Misfueling

Just had a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a rainy Tuesday and we were en route to help an old lady who had put petrol in her diesel company's Ford in Gunton. I had been advised she had left the filling station forecourt and was stranded along a rural road on route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I plugged her location straight into the Satnav and arrived within an hour. I got to the vehicle and drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle. As I was working she explained, "Now I'm becoming quite absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the car needing diesel seeing that I'd only acquired it a short while ago when my previous car, which I had for more than twenty years, inevitably died". I got the drain done and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. What a precious Suffolk lady!

Last Monday a customer phoned us when his khaki green Land Rover Freelander broke down in the middle of a street in Gunton. He had by accident put unleaded in his diesel motor and had managed to drive so far as the road before needing to pull over. It was still in the early hours of the day and our technical engineer, who lives not far away, reached him in about ten minutes. We managed to get rid of the wrong fuel and put clean diesel yet again in the car. "Thank you for your prompt response, especially at 6 a.m., I am grateful for it."

Wrong Fuel in Car Suffolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Gunton

We not long ago got a call from a young man who had put the incorrect fuel in his sombre grey Volvo in Gunton. He had conked out on the street. "It was terrific how rapid you were in getting someone out to aid me when I petrol in my diesel. Thank you". Needless to say we showed up promptly and purged the engine after draining all the unleaded from the diesel tank. When he arrived the technician said the client was fuming, but was pleased when we finished.

This was most definitely what is called an unsociable hour to be up. It was roughly dawn and noone was stirring. It was rather uneventful thus far, and me and John were relaxing browsing several old newspapers. This was an uncommon quiet time in Suffolk. It was in fact that calm that when the telephone inevitably rang it made me jump! The person said: "I have only just concluded my overnight shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in the diesel new Toyota RAV4". We got him to inform us exactly where he was and we set off, ending up in Gunton less than an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle and he said thanks for coming so fast. While we were heading back to the depot we found two girls at the edge of the highway who looked like they had a puncture. Obviously we pulled up to change it, to their elation.

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.
