It was after 9 pm on a Monday and while we were assured a dry and fresh day, it had not given up on pouring! Mark and I were resting there commenting on the golf rankings, ready for the next telephone call to arrive. Finally we had a phone call from a woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol garage in High Worsall and put petrol in a diesel well worn Mazda MX-5 lease car in error. The unfortunate lady was very affected apparently, stating "I simply can't believe I have destroyed the car! I am just so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I completely forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that such things unfortunately happen. She managed to get the car to a protected position and, because it was no more than a short distance off from where we were, we could find the customer swiftly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could return to the hotel she was lodging at. Even though we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive off contented and not so concerned. One more fuel drain in North Yorkshire done well in my mind!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can potentially result in idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both circumstances rather easily.

You should know that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.

This was the graveyard shift. It was around sunrise and nobody was stirring. It had been fairly uneventful up to now, and me and John were relaxing looking at several old magazines. This was an uncommon quiet hour in North Yorkshire. It was so quiet that when my mobile rang it made me start! The person on the phone stated: "I've just completed my night shift and incredibly poured petrol in the diesel precious Hyundai Genesis Coupe". We asked him to inform us where the car was and we hit the road, arriving in High Worsall less than 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was removed from the car. He said thanks a lot for coming so fast.

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.
