It was about 5 pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! James and me were seated there talking over the recent golf rankings, waiting for the 8th call of the day to arrive. In due time we had the phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had arrived at the Esso petrol station in Scruton and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel bright red Suzuki Samurai rental car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was fairly irritated it seemed, telling me "I still can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to worry, also that these things regrettably happen. She was able to get the car to a protected position and, as it was only a short distance from the office, we were able to find the lady right away. The wrong fuel was taken out so she was able to get back to the motel she was staying at. Even though we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home contented and a lot less apprehensive. Another job in North Yorkshire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to deal with in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can easily produce idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both cases fairly swiftly.

Take note however that any time the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one is going to be completely wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car in DL7 Postcode - Scruton Misfueling

What a good night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Sunday and I was en route to help an older woman who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel uncle's Hyundai Accent in Scruton. She told us that she drove away from the filling station and was stranded on a rural lane on the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I punched her location in the TomTom and was with her in less than an hour. I turned up at the vehicle and drained the wrong fuel in the car car. While I was working she said, "I am getting somewhat forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car taking diesel because I had only acquired it a week back right after my former one, which I'd had for about 30 years, eventually died". I got the drain completed and she gifted me a toffee and said thanks a lot. What a lovely North Yorkshire woman!

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.
