Wrong Fuel in Car Paddlesworth - Petrol in Diesel Car Paddlesworth

Now I am certainly not that excited about doing the job weekends, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I had only just left the family following a tasty Sunday roast prepared for us by the missus, and I was on my way to help a gentleman after he filled the wrong petrol in his Paddlesworth. He was stationed nearby therefore it wouldn't be long before I reached him. Just as I drove up at the car and started work he said to me "Praise God! I incredibly had my concentration on stuff and failed to realise I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I caused any problems simply by driving it?" I stated that truth be told there shouldn't be any kind of harm and that I would get the wrong fuel drained immediately. Obviously I drained the contaminated fuel from the car and put in the correct fuel, and yet another content motorist could continue on their journey with no hassle. He couldn't stop thanking me, and that is exactly what can make carrying out work on Sundays just a tiny bit easier to me!

The above symptoms are usually an indication of incorrect fuel in a vehicle and if we figure out that yours is the same issue, we will deal with it quickly since our mechanics bring the necessary equipment and fresh fuel with them. There are three main reasons why you should choose us. Our mobile technicians are equipped with the right skills and equipment in draining out the incorrect fuel and replacing it with fresh fuel. Another reason is our prices for the fuel replacement is the same as the current price in your nearby petrol station. The last reason is the method of payment. We accept other forms of payment like credit or debit cards if in case you don't have cash with you.

Other Services

We also provide other services aside from fixing the problem of wrong fuel

After dealing with the problem of wrong fuel we also help you with other services like disposal of contaminated fuel. The contaminated fuel should not be disposed of by anyone unqualified, but by an expert in this field because fuel disposal incorrectly done can pollute the water supply and damage the surroundings. We are expert in this field too as we are accredited by Environment agency and we have the right equipment to do this work, both legally and safely.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

There are other factors that cause engine problems aside from filling your car with the wrong fuel. The presence of water in your fuel also makes your vehicle to show similar signs, which include: lack of power, trouble running, production of excess smoke and even stalling. This is a serious issue that can completely cause harm to the fuel filters.

The mistake of putting AdBlue into the fuel (AdBlue: a solution utilized to improve the cleanliness of engine exhausts) can also cause the above symptoms. Using AdBlue without any knowledge of how it should be refilled can make your vehicle behave abnormally. For correct operation of it, AdBlue should be added through its own separate tank and dosing system rather than added to the fuel tank.

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.

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:

    • 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.
