It was just before eight pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a rainless night, it had not stopped raining! Paul and I were sitting there commenting on the sports rankings, prepared for the next fuel drain that day to arrive. Inevitably we received the call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Esso petrol garage in Moorsholm and put petrol in her diesel racing green Toyota Yaris lease car in error. She was fairly irritated it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I completely did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that such things unfortunately can happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a secure position and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes away from our van, we could arrive at the lady quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she could return to the motel she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive off relaxed and much less anxious. Another fuel drain in North Yorkshire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to deal with in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel can easily bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both circumstances quite simply.

Keep in mind that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel tank sitting in the back of your garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in North Yorkshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even some drums in a shed, assuming that we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

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.
