Wrong Fuel in Car Derringstone - Petrol in Diesel Car Derringstone

A driver with a full car of children in her diesel Derringstone had filled her car with £50 of petrol at the Co Op petrol station. She phoned us sobbing and really worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel previously and didn't know what could happen to her vehicle because of it. We reassured her that everything should be fine and that she would be ready to go quickly. When we arrived on scene she was visible distressed but as our technician began work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she discovered that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't ruined. She soon cheered up and was on her way saying, "I can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Especially with the youngsters in the back."


The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!




After arrival

Once our competent technician reaches your vehicle he will assess your car to confirm if it is truly the case of wrong fuel in the car. And if it isn't he will not need to do the drain and will only ask you for a minimal cost.

If the technician discovers that it is truly the case of wrong fuel then he will start fixing it quickly as he already has the fresh fuel and the required equipment to solve the problem. He will take away the mixed fuel, flush fuel system thoroughly and then fill it up with the fresh fuel priced at the same rate as at the petrol station. You also do not have to fret if you don't have ample money with you, we understand your situation and we will accept any major credit or debit card.

AdBlue and Water Contamination

You should also pay attention to the fact that incorrect fuel is not the only problem which makes the engine run in an abnormal way, but often the presence of water in the fuel can also make your vehicle produce too much smoke, stop, lack power, or run irregularly. But you should also remember that water can cause other serious damages like damage to fuel filters.

The mistake of putting AdBlue into the fuel (AdBlue: a solution utilized to enhance the cleanliness of engine exhausts) can also cause the above signs. Using AdBlue without any knowledge of how it should be refilled can make your vehicle behave abnormally. Hence, it should only be utilized by someone who is aware that it should be added to its own tank rather than being added directly to the fuel.

We extend our service to you whatever it maybe: whether it's an AdBlue problem or fuel contaminated with water. 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. Additionally, we can help you replace the fuel filters damaged by water contamination so you don’t need to bother about them.

Did you Know

You might be thinking how else we might help you.

Once our mobile technician has emptied out the wrong fuel, they have a full tank of contaminated fuel which needs to be disposed of. You aren’t allowed to pour such things nowadays as it will contaminate waterways and have a dangerous impact on the environment, and may even pollute the local water supply. But we can manage it for you since we have the right equipment, and we are certified by the Environment Agency to do so.

Disposing of contaminated fuel is a separate service we offer to our clients, either commercial or private companies. If you have a private firm and in need of our service, we only need full access to your tank, either fixed or mobile or other types of container. We will then do the rest of the work in accordance to the environmental law specified.

Just wait for a moment and we will be there. But if a few minutes is still too long for you to wait, you may redirect your attention through browsing other services that we offer. For sure we'll arrive imminently. Also, know that it shouldn’t take us more than 30 minutes to solve the problem, so you can be certain to continue with your journey soon.

Rest assured also that we also deal with other problems resulting from wrong fuel, such as the existence of air in the fuel system or even a low battery, and that we have the expertise and equipment to make it right.

Thus, if you were feeling any kind of stress due to the incorrect fuel issue, now you can feel relieved like nothing had happened and be ready to resume your journey.

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 VAT 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.
