It was just after 8 pm on a Tuesday and although we were guaranteed a dry day, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ray and me were resting there discussing the footy rankings, waiting for the sixth job to come in. Eventually we got the phone call from a woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Tesco petrol station in Annfield Plain and put the wrong fuel in a diesel black BMW M rental. The poor lady was somewhat distressed apparently, crying "I still can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to worry, plus that things like this regrettably happen.

The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can potentially contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases rather easily.

Bear in mind that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container placed in the back of your garden with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several domestic and industrial properties in County Durham to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a garage, provided that we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.


Wrong Fuel in Car in DH9 Postcode - Annfield Plain Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a bright Bank Holiday Monday and we were on my way to assist an older lovely lady after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel stylish Kia Sorento in Annfield Plain. I had been advised she had left the filling station and stranded on a country lane en route to visit her godchildren. I got her location punched into the TomTom and was on-scene inside 60 minutes. I turned up at the car and drained the wrong fuel from the car. As I was doing the work she told me, "I have been becoming somewhat forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car needing diesel seeing that I'd just purchased it a couple of days back when my old one, which I'd owned for over 30 years, inevitably broke down". I got the job done and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks. What a lovely County Durham lady!

This was an unsociable time to be on the road. It was close to dawn and almost noone was stirring. It had become pretty uneventful thus far, and me and Ray were sitting around perusing a number of old newspapers. It was a rare tranquil hour in County Durham. It was in fact that relaxing that the instant the telephone finally rang it made me jump!

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.
