It was just before eight pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were sitting talking about the recent rugby rankings, ready for the seventh job of the day to arrive. Finally we had the phone call from a woman on a business excursion who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Foredale and filled petrol in a diesel maroon Cadillac Catera hire car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was rather troubled apparently, saying "I can not believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that these things regrettably happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a safe spot and, seeing as it was just a few miles away from us, we could arrive at her fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was living at. Despite the fact we got fairly wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away relaxed and a lot less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in North Yorkshire done well 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 unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out fully, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations rather swiftly.

Be aware however that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be completely wet and useless.

I appreciated a fantastic day golfing on my holiday and felt satisfied with myself the next morning as I set out to help a young family away in Foredale. They had conked out after filling diesel in their white Isuzu i-350, and were approximately an hour's drive away. I showed up at their position and smirked to myself as I heard to the woman chastising her partner for being so daft. "How could you possibly find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to explain that this happens on a regular basis in North Yorkshire and that it's really nothing to fret about, even so he yet still got an ear bashing. Unlucky guy. Anyway, I extracted the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching while they drove off I shouted so long and pondered on what her indoors would say to me if ever I did the same thing... I would personally never live it down!

It truly was the graveyard shift. It was about dawn and nobody was stirring. It was rather uneventful so far, and me and Brian were loafing about reading through several old magazines. This was an unusual tranquil hour in North Yorkshire. It was indeed that peaceful that when my mobile ultimately rang I jumped with surprise! The person on the phone explained: "I have only just ended my night shift and foolishly put petrol in a mum's Fiat Multipla". We got him to tell us exactly where he was located and we hit the road, arriving in Foredale an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed from the engine and he said thank you for coming out so promptly. While we were heading back to the depot we found two ladies at the edge of the road who seemed like they suffered a puncture. So we pulled over and helped them change it, to their delight.

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.
