Petrol in your diesel car in New Earswick? You have reached the correct place. We are here to help you in your hour of need and get you running once more with our specialist fuel drain services.
It was after 9 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Mark and I were seated commenting on the rugby results, waiting around for the seventh fuel drain that day to arrive. In due time we had the call from a young lady on a business excursion who had gone to the BP petrol garage in New Earswick and put petrol in a diesel khaki green VW Jetta III hire car in error. The poor lady was somewhat affected apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I completely forgot I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that such things unfortunately happen. She had managed to get the car into a protected area and, because it was just a few miles from us, we could find the woman quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she was able to get back to the motel she was residing at. Even though we got fairly drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off relaxed and less worried. A fuel drain in North Yorkshire well done in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious matter to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel may well lead to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both circumstances pretty easily.
Keep in mind though that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and useless.

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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
