The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!




After arrival

Upon arrival, our skilled technician will first inspect your car to guarantee that it is the problem of wrong fuel in the car. And if it is not, he won't drain it but will just ask you for a nominal amount.

If the technician learns that it is truly the case of wrong fuel then he will start fixing it right away as he already has the fresh fuel and the necessary equipment to fix the problem. He will instantly remove mixed fuel and then replace it with fresh fuel, and we won’t ask you for extra on the fresh fuel. We also take all major debit and credit cards as we understand your situation and hence there is no need to be scared if you are out of cash.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

If your fuel system has water in it, irregularities of behavior will start to be shown by your engine. It will make it exhibit similar signs as the wrong fuel in the car, such as low power, irregular running, production of excess smoke and even stalling. But unlike wrong fuel, it can make your fuel filters require replacement.

Yet another thing which can cause similar signs is putting AdBlue directly into the fuel tank. AdBlue contamination can also happen if it is used by somebody who has no knowledge on how or where it should be added. Therefore, it should just be utilized by somebody who is aware that it should be added to its own tank rather than being added directly to the fuel.

But don’t fret as regardless of whether it is a matter of contaminated fuel due to water or AdBlue, we are still able to help you. By using the same process of draining and flushing the fuel system as used in solving the problem of wrong fuel in the car, we can let you get back on the road. Aside from that, if the damage has extended to your fuel filters, we can change them out on the spot. You don't need to call for another service provider to do that.

Wrong Fuel in Car Chesley - Petrol in Diesel Car Chesley

This really was the graveyard shift. It was about 3:30 in the morning and nobody was around. It had become quite uneventful up to now, and Ryan and I were loafing perusing a number of old articles. This was a rare peaceful hour. It was that calm that when the phone eventually rang I jumped with surprise! The voice on the other end told me: "I've only just concluded my overnight shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in the Chesley in error". I told him to tell us just where the vehicle was located and we hit the road, getting to him under an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the motor. He said thanks a lot for arriving so quickly. While we were coming back to the office we spotted two women at the edge of the street who looked like they had a flat. As a result we got out and helped them change it, much to their elation.

I am not overly inclined to doing the job on weekends, and a while back was the same. I'd only just come away from home filled with a wonderful lunch cooked for me by the better half, and I was on the way to help a fellow who had filled the wrong fuel in his Chesley. He was located nearby therefore it wasn't a long time before I arrived with him. Just as I pulled up behind the car and stepped out he told me "Thank the Almighty! I had my mind on other things and failed to grasp that I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought on any damage because of starting it?" I stated that truth be told there shouldn't be problems and also that I'd personally drain the contaminated fuel right away for him. Naturally I drained the contaminated fuel from the car and filled it with some correct fuel, and so another satisfied client had the ability to continue his traveling without the need for fuss. He couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and this is what tends to make working on weekends just a small bit less painful for me personally!
