The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in East Cottingwith (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a complete East Riding of Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill your vehicle if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) and fill up the car. They will be able to handle the most common issues which may go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important matter to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can easily result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both circumstances pretty easily.

Keep in mind though that any time the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

It was 7:00 on a warm Wednesday and we were off to assist an older lady after she put petrol in her diesel dark blue Daihatsu Rocky in East Cottingwith. I had been advised she drove away from the petrol station and was pulled up on a backwater lane along the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I popped her location straight into the TomTom and was with her within 60 minutes. I reached the car and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. Whilst I was working she explained, "Now I'm getting fairly absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car working with diesel since I had only got it a short while back when my old one, which I'd owned for about 30 years, eventually broke down". I completed the job and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. What a pleasant East Riding of Yorkshire lady!

This was most definitely the night shift. It was close to 3:30 in the morning and nobody was around. It had been rather dead so far, and me and John were loafing about looking through a few old papers. It was an unusual restful time in East Riding of Yorkshire. Actually it was so calm that when the telephone ultimately rang I leaped with surprise! The person said: "I just ended my night shift and incredibly filled petrol in my diesel pristine BMW 3 Series". I instructed him to let us know where the vehicle was located and we set off, getting to him in East Cottingwith no more than half an hour later. The wrong fuel was extracted from the motor. He thanked us profusely for getting there so rapidly. As we were going back home we found two ladies at the side of the highway who seemed like they had a puncture.

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 VAT 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.
