It was just before 10 pm on a Saturday and while we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Dan and I were relaxing discussing the recent rugby rankings, ready for the next call to arrive. Eventually we got a phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Catton and put the wrong fuel in a diesel new-shape Nissan JUKE rental in error. She was fairly irritated it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that things like this regrettably often happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a protected area and, since it was just a few minutes from where we were, we were able to get to the customer swiftly. The bad fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the hotel she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive home contented and less apprehensive. A job in North Yorkshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious issue to take care of in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol can lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations quite simply.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be completely wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

A customer living in Catton contacted us shortly after she managed to get her misfueled automobile to the office. She had filled petrol in her diesel customised Toyota RAV4 and, like many people before her, believed that she would be able to just fill her vehicle with diesel and it would run fine. The engine was chugging and then it stopped when she got to the the front of her office. We promptly went to work on the fuel drain after she called and had it resolved inside an hour while she was working. She came outside later on and thanked us stating, "I'm extremely relieved you fixed my car."

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.
