The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!

The above signs are usually an indication of incorrect fuel in a vehicle and if we find out that yours is the same problem, we will deal with it immediately since our mechanics carry the required equipment and fresh fuel with them. There are three main reasons why you should select us. First of all, our teams are competent in managing your situation and can get you back on the road quickly.

Contamination with AdBlue or Water

If your fuel system has water in it, irregularities of behavior will start to be shown by your engine. It will make it display similar symptoms 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.

Putting AdBlue in the fuel tank can also make your car to display similar symptoms. AdBlue is a cleaner that helps the engine of your vehicle to be more eco-friendly. However, if this is added directly to your fuel tank, it will most likely to cause more trouble than good. That's exactly why it should have a separate tank and the dosing should be automated. If added manually, this should be carried out by someone who knows the right place to put it.

Wrong Fuel in Car Hersden - Petrol in Diesel Car Hersden

This was certainly what we call an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was around 2am and nobody was about. It had been rather quiet thus far, and Ryan and I were relaxing looking at some old papers. It was a rare restful hour. It was indeed that relaxing that when the telephone ultimately rang I jumped with surprise! The customer on the other end explained: "I only just ended my overnight shift and incredibly filled petrol in a Hersden". We asked him to let us know where exactly the car was located and we set off, ending up an hour later. The fuel was cleared from the motor. He thanked us for coming out so rapidly. While we were heading back to the depot we spotted two young ladies at the side of the street who seemed like they had a puncture. Obviously we got out to help them change it, much to their elation.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Hersden - Fuel Rescue Hersden

Now I'm not actually that interested in working on weekends, and a while back was no different. I had only just come away from home after a lovely dinner prepared for us by the better half, and I was en route to deal with a guy who had put the incorrect fuel in his Hersden. He was only nearby therefore it wouldn't be long before I got to him. Just as I arrived right behind the car and got out he told me "Praise the Lord! I incredibly had my attention on other considerations and failed to realise I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought about harm through driving it?" I determined there should not be any kind of harm and that also I would personally get the fuel drained right away for him. It goes without saying that I drained the fuel from the car and filled up with some appropriate fuel, and one more delighted motorist could carry on with his journey without any bother. He did not stop thanking me, and that is exactly what can make earning a living on weekends a little easier for me!

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.
