It was about six pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Mark and I were seated discussing the weekend's golf, waiting around for the next call that day to arrive. Before long we received a phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had gone to the BP filling garage in Ellerker and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel mate's Lexus RX rental. The poor thing was fairly troubled apparently, crying "I simply can't believe I've messed up the car! I am so used to filling my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to fret, also that such things unfortunately happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a secure space and, because it was no more than a few minutes from our van, we could arrive at the customer right away. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Even though we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home relaxed and a lot less stressed. Yet another fuel drain in East Riding of Yorkshire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant condition to handle in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel may contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both situations rather swiftly.

Be aware however that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near to a car parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.


Wrong Fuel in Car in HU15 Postcode - Ellerker Misfueling

Just had a great night of sleep! It was 7:30 am on a gloomy Bank Holiday Monday and we were on my way to help an old woman after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel black Peugeot 405 in Ellerker. I'd been informed she had left the filling station forecourt and was pulled up in a rural road on the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I got her location punched in the Satnav and got there in less than an hour. I reached the car and removed the wrong fuel from the car. As I was working she told me, "I have been becoming somewhat forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle using diesel as I had only acquired it a week back after my other one, which I owned for over 25 years, eventually died". I completed the drain and she gave me a toffee and thanked me for my work. What a lovely East Riding of 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 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.
