Other Services

Other than incorrect fuel in the car, we also deliver other services associated with it. You should also be familiar with them. For instance, we do help our clients dispose of contaminated fuel. This is because your average mechanic is not authorized to do it these days because it can easily degrade the environment and even contaminate the local water supply.

We can drain fixed or mobile tanks as well as a wide range of other containers, as long as we can get to them.

Contamination with Water and AdBlue

Contamination of fuel by water is another issue which can make your car behave badly. Symptoms stated above for an engine with the incorrect fuel can also be noticed if the fuel system has water in it. This includes low power, lots of smoke appearing out of the exhaust, irregularities on how the vehicle runs and even failing to run at all. But unlike wrong fuel, it can make your fuel filters require replacement.

You can also observe the same symptoms if AdBlue is added int the diesel tank. This additive which is utilized to purify the emissions of your engine should just be added through its own separate tank and automatic dosing system inbuilt into the vehicle rather than directly into a fuel tank of a diesel engine. Hence if someone who is not aware of this procedure tries to add it to the fuel, it will result in engine trouble.

But you don't need to fret since we can fix both issues for you by applying the same procedure utilized in solving the issue of wrong fuel.

Wrong Fuel in Car Sheldwich Lees - Petrol in Diesel Car Sheldwich Lees

It was about five pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and me were sitting talking about the recent footy, waiting for the 8th call for the day to come in. In due time we had the phone call from a young lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP filling garage and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Sheldwich Lees lease car. The poor thing was pretty troubled apparently, crying "I still can't believe that I have ruined the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol car that I completely forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to fret, plus that these things unfortunately can happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a protected area and, since it was no more than a few miles away from us, we were able to arrive at her almost instantly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive away calm and much less concerned. One more job well done in my mind!

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.
