The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue Contamination

All over North Yorkshire we have noticed an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of drivers not being totally sure the way to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car?

Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it right away. And definitely be careful not to turn over the motor - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In case you did start the car you would very likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Whenever you get in this predicament don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our engineers have got the practical expertise and experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel container lying at the rear of your garden with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and industrial properties in North Yorkshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can reach it, we can drain it.


Wrong Fuel in Car in YO61 Postcode - Thormanby Misfueling

Just had a fantastic night's sleep! 7:30 am on a warm Wednesday and I was en route to help an old lady after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel dad's BMW 3 Series in Thormanby. She told us that she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and pulled up in a rural road on route to visit her grandchildren. I popped the location straight into the TomTom and got there in less than an hour or so. I reached the car and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she explained, "Now I'm becoming rather forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car needing diesel seeing that I had only just acquired it a couple of days back because my old car, which I had had for over 25 years, inevitably died". I got the drain done and she presented me a toffee and said thank you. Such a precious North Yorkshire woman!

A young lady from Thormanby with her youngsters in her diesel aunt's Kia Spectra had filled her car with £45 of petrol at the service station. She called us crying and genuinely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and did not know what could happen to her vehicle . We reassured her that all would be okay and that she would be in action in no time at all. When we arrived she was still upset but as our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she noticed that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon enough brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I just can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Particularly with the little ones on board."

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.
