It was after seven pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were sitting discussing the weekend's footy, prepared for the seventh call to arrive. Eventually we got the phone call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Copt Hewick and filled petrol in her diesel bright white Bugatti Veyron hire car by mistake. The poor lady was very affected apparently, saying "I simply cannot believe I've messed up the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to fret, and also that things like this can happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a protected spot and, seeing as it was just a short distance from the office, we were able to reach the lady fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Even though we got very soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off contented and not so worried. One more misfuel correction in North Yorkshire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant condition to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel will often produce idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations pretty expediently.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and ineffective.

A man had stopped just off a road in Copt Hewick. His grass green BMW Alpina B7 car had stopped working and he had no clue what was wrong right up until he noticed he put petrol in his diesel car. He called us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I didn't detect that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had gotten no sleep the evening before and that could have been the reason.

A customer working in Copt Hewick called us as soon as she had managed to get her misfueled automobile to the office. She had filled petrol in her diesel rust red Renault Alliance and, like plenty before her, imagined that she could basically top up her car with diesel and it would be no problem. The vehicle was coughing and then it cut out when she reached the the front of her work. We quickly started on the fuel drain after she called and had it sorted within an hour while she was working. She came outside soon after and thanked us stating, "I'm very pleased you sorted 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.
