The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank is going to bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both situations rather simply.

Bear in mind however that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Waste Fuel Removal

We have been called out to a number of private and business premises in North Yorkshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages.

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.
