It was about 6 pm on a Saturday and even though we were promised a rainless afternoon, it had not ceased raining! Ryan and I were sitting there talking about the weekend's football, at the ready for the 8th telephone call for the day to arrive. In due time we received a phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had pulled into the Tesco filling garage in Norton-on-Derwent and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel light green Cadillac STS-V lease car in error. The unfortunate lady was rather agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I just can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I had didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to fret, and that such things sadly do happen. She managed to move the car to a safe position and, as it was only a few miles from the office, we were able to arrive at the lady right away. The bad fuel was extracted and she was able to return to the motel she was lodging in. Even though we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive off relaxed and not so apprehensive. Another job in North Yorkshire well done in my books!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to proceed in case you’ve put AdBlue into a Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical that is made from a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is actually devastating to your car's fuel system, particularly if you started the car with AdBlue in the diesel tank. The moment the engine has been started the AdBlue will likely be dragged into your fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, bringing about serious and costly problems to your car's fuel system.

Contact us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will fix all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in YO17 Postcode - Norton-on-Derwent Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 on a warm Saturday and I was off to assist an elder woman who put petrol in her diesel mint green Chrysler PT Cruiser in Norton-on-Derwent. I'd been told she had driven away from the filling station and broken down on a rural lane on route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I popped her location in the Satnav and arrived inside an hour. I arrived at the car and removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle. While I was working she told me, "I'm becoming somewhat forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car needing diesel because I had only bought it a few days ago because my previous car, which I had for over 25 years, eventually stopped working". I completed the job and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. Such a lovely North Yorkshire lady!

A gentleman had stopped just near a street in Norton-on-Derwent. His burgundy red Ford Fiesta engine had ceased operating and he had no clue what was the problem right up until he realised he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He called us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I did not detect that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had gotten no sleep the night before and that could have been the key reason why.

Wrong Fuel in Car North Yorkshire - Petrol in Diesel Car Norton-on-Derwent

I am not necessarily excessively excited about working on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I'd only just left the wife and kids following a superb lunch made for us by the wife, and I was off to help a gentleman after he put the incorrect fuel in his spotless Audi. He was situated in Norton-on-Derwent hence it wouldn't be long before I reached him. As I arrived at the car and got out he explained to me "Praise God! I foolishly had my concentration on other stuff and failed to perceive I have put diesel in my petrol car. Is it possible I inflicted any problems because of running it?" I said that generally there shouldn't be any harm and that also I would get the contaminated fuel drained at once for him. Obviously I drained the fuel from the vehicle and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and so another happy motorist was able to carry on with their trip with no hassle. He couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and that is what helps make working on weekends in North Yorkshire a little bit easier to me!

This was exactly the graveyard shift. It was close to sunrise and noone was about. It was fairly quiet until now, and me and Ryan were sitting about looking through a few old newspapers. It was an uncommon calm moment in North Yorkshire. Actually it was indeed so quiet that the instant my mobile rang I leaped! The person told me: "I only just finished my overnight shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in a diesel mate's Ford Taurus". We got him to inform us where he was located and we headed out, arriving in Norton-on-Derwent under an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was taken out from the car. He thanked us profusely for showing up so fast. While we were going back to the office we saw two young ladies at the edge of the road who seemed to have a puncture. Accordingly we stopped to change it, much 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.
