The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Patrington (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete East Riding of Yorkshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up your automobile in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to refill your automobile. They are also able to handle any of the most common troubles that may go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly an important condition to handle in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can easily bring about idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both cases rather swiftly.

Be aware however that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

This was exactly what we call an unsociable time to be up. It was close to sunrise and almost noone was about. It had been fairly quiet up to now, and me and Ray were relaxing reading through a few old papers. That was a rare calm hour in East Riding of Yorkshire. It was in fact that calm that the instant my mobile rang I jumped with surprise! The motorist on the phone explained: "I just finished my evening shift and foolishly poured petrol in a classic Ford Escort". I asked him to inform us exactly where the car was and we hit the road, reaching him in Patrington less than half an hour later. The fuel was taken out from the vehicle and he thanked us for showing up so quickly.

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.
