Wrong Fuel in Car Greenoak, East Riding of Yorkshire

If ever you might have put the wrong fuel in the car or truck in Greenoak we certainly are the professionals you really should speak to. We cover the whole of the Greenoak area and all bordering towns.

It was around six pm on a Thursday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and I were seated going over the weekend's rugby rankings, prepared for the next job to arrive. Finally we had a phone call from a lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in Greenoak and put petrol in her diesel expensive Range Rover Evoque lease car. The unfortunate thing was somewhat distressed apparently, stating "I still can't believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to fret, and also that these things unfortunately do happen. She was able to move the car to a safe space and, seeing that it was only a few minutes away from us, we could get to the lady without delay. The contaminated fuel was drained so she was able to get back to the hotel she was living at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home satisfied and not so apprehensive. A job in East Riding of Yorkshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to handle in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel can easily lead to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of than water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases fairly easily.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one is going to be totally wet and useless.

What a fantastic night's sleep! It was 7:30 on a sunny Tuesday and I was on the way to help an old sweetheart after she had put petrol in her diesel compact VW Jetta III in Greenoak. She informed us that she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and was pulled up in a backwater lane along the way to visit her grandchildren. I got her location plugged in the TomTom and was with her inside 60 minutes. I got to the location and removed the contaminated fuel in the car car. Whilst I was doing the drain she explained, "I'm getting quite absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car working with diesel as I'd only acquired it a short while ago because my previous one, which I had owned for more than twenty five years, finally died on me". I completed the drain and she offered me a toffee and said thank you. Such a precious East Riding of Yorkshire lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Greenoak

Now I am not actually excessively interested in running weekends, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I had just departed the family following a superb lunch made by the better half, and I was on the way to deal with a guy after he had filled the incorrect fuel in his modern Audi R8. He was only in Greenoak and so I arrived there very quickly. As I arrived at the vehicle and stepped out he said to me "Praise the Lord! I foolishly had my mind on something else and failed to realise I've put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I brought on any problems simply by driving it?" I determined that there probably should not be any kind of damage and also that I'd get the fuel drained immediately for him. Obviously I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and put in the appropriate fuel, and so one more pleased motorist was able to carry on with their traveling without difficulty. The gentleman couldn't stop thanking me, and that helps make operating on Sundays in East Riding of Yorkshire a little bit less painful to me!

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.
