It was just after 5 pm on a Tuesday and while we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and I were resting talking about the weekend's tennis rankings, waiting around for the sixth call of the day to come in. Finally we got a phone call from a young lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Shell filling station in Boulby and put the wrong fuel in her diesel spotless Cadillac CTS rental car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was rather distressed apparently, crying "I simply cannot believe that I've wrecked the car! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to be concerned, also that these things regrettably happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a safe area and, since it was only a short distance from us, we were able to reach the lady rather quickly. The bad fuel was taken out so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive home satisfied and less worried. A fuel drain in North Yorkshire done well in my mind!

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel is going to lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both circumstances quite easily.

Keep in mind that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one is going to be completely wet and ineffective.

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container placed at the back of the garden full of out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and industrial properties in North Yorkshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a garage, if we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a gloomy Wednesday and I was en route to help an elder lady after she put petrol in her diesel gorgeous Fiat Nuova 500 in Boulby. I'd been informed she had left the petrol station forecourt and broken down on a backwater lane on the way to visit her godchildren. I got her location plugged in the Satnav and was on-scene within an hour or so. I reached the location and extracted the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing the drain she said to me, "I have been becoming quite forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle using diesel as I'd just got it a few days back when my other one, which I had for about twenty years, eventually stopped working". I got the drain done and she gave me a peppermint and said thanks. What a lovely North Yorkshire lady!

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.
