It was just after 6 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless day, it had not stopped pouring! Ryan and I were resting talking over the football, waiting for the next job for the day to arrive. Eventually we got a call from a young lady on a company trip who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Kettlesing and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel uncle's BMW 5 Series rental car by mistake. The poor thing was rather irritated apparently, stating "I cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was running a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to fret, and also that such things happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a secure area and, as it was only a few minutes from where we were, we could reach her quickly. The bad fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Despite the fact we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive off calm and not so stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in North Yorkshire well done in my books!

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a significant situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can certainly result in idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied fully, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both cases quite quickly.

Bear in mind that if the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have successfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.

Wrong Fuel in Car North Yorkshire - Petrol in Diesel Car Kettlesing

We a few weeks ago received a call from a young man who had put the incorrect fuel in his wife's Peugeot 3008 in Kettlesing. He had conked out on the street. "I was surprised at how speedy you people were in sending a fuel drainer out to assist me after I stupidly filled my diesel car with unleaded. Thank you so much". Of course we appeared rapidly and flushed the engine after draining all the unleaded from the diesel tank. The customer was smiling again by the time we were done and he went away satisfied and content.

A gentleman who had unluckily put unleaded in his diesel mom's Lexus called us for assistance at the Esso filling station in Kettlesing. He thought it would be good to fill up before continuing on to the local holiday park . "I put unleaded instead of diesel which wasn't a smart start to our vacation." It was definitely no challenge at all for our technical engineer to go along and carry out the fuel drain. We hope everyone enjoyed their holiday.

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.
