It was before seven pm on a Tuesday and although we were assured a dry day, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Paul and me were sitting there talking about the weekend's tennis, prepared for the 8th call to come in. Eventually we had the call from a girl on a business expedition who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in Thoralby and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel new Audi A8 rental car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was somewhat distressed apparently, crying "I just can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car that I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that such things regrettably do happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure space and, since it was only a few minutes from the office, we were able to get to the customer quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained and she could get back to the motel she was staying in. Despite the fact we got pretty soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off calm and much less worried. One more job in North Yorkshire well done in my mind!

If you've unfortunately put the incorrect fuel in your car and right now need the wrong fuel removed you are very likely browsing the internet searching for a quick, reliable, skilled and reasonably priced fuel drain company in Thoralby or North Yorkshire. We are the service to help you!

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it if you’ve put AdBlue in your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a solution that is made from a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%). It is actually disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, particularly any time you run the engine with AdBlue in the fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the AdBlue will be pushed into your fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and costly harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Wrong Fuel in Car in DL8 Postcode - Thoralby Misfueling

What a great night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a rainy Saturday and I was en route to help an older lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel company's Isuzu Amigo in Thoralby. She informed us that she had left the filling station forecourt and was stranded in a rural road on route to see her family. I got her location plugged into the Satnav and was with her inside an hour. I reached the vehicle and removed the contaminated fuel in the car car. While I was working she said to me, "Now I'm getting quite forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car needing diesel because I had just acquired it a few days ago when my old car, which I had had for in excess of 30 years, inevitably broke down". I got the drain done and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. What a lovely North Yorkshire lady!

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.
