Wrong Fuel in Car Thorgill, North Yorkshire

Our service is fully mobile and we have the ability to come out regardless of exactly where you are and have the automobile drained, cleaned out and working again in no time - and for a fair price!

It was around eight pm on a Tuesday and even though we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Mark and I were sitting discussing the sports, waiting around for the seventh fuel drain for the day to come in. Finally we got the phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in Thorgill and filled petrol in a diesel deep grey Volvo240 hire car. The unfortunate lady was somewhat irritated it seemed, crying "I simply can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car that I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that such things often happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a secure area and, seeing as it was only a few miles away from us, we could find her almost instantly. The wrong fuel was drained and she was able to once again go back to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home satisfied and a lot less concerned. One more job in North Yorkshire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to handle in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel is going to result in idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both situations quite simply.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and ineffective.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel container in the back of your premises containing unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and industrial properties in North Yorkshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps some containers in a shed, as long as we can reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

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

Now I am not that keen on working weekends, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I'd just left home filled with a wonderful lunch made by the better half, and I was on the way to help a fellow who put the wrong fuel in his dad's BMW M Roadster. He was stationed in Thorgill thus it wouldn't be long before I got to him. As I drove up at the car and started work he told me "Thank God! I incredibly had my thoughts on other considerations and did not realise I have put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I brought about damage because of driving it?" I determined that truth be told there should not be harm and that I would personally drain the contaminated fuel quickly. Naturally I got the fuel drained from the car and put in some suitable fuel, and thus one more content client could continue on their ride with no bother. He could hardly stop thanking me, and this is exactly what can make earning a living on weekends in North Yorkshire just that small bit easier for me!

A motorist who had sadly put unleaded in his diesel bright white Kia Sorento contacted us for a fuel drain at the Esso petrol station in Thorgill. He thought it would be good to fill up before proceeding on to the local caravan park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put unleaded instead of diesel which probably wasn't a smart beginning to our holiday break." It was really no challenge by any means for our technician to go out and do 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.
