Wrong Fuel in Car Warmlake - Petrol in Diesel Car Warmlake

What a good night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a gloomy Saturday and I was en route to assist an elder sweetheart who put petrol in her diesel Warmlake. She informed us that she had left the petrol station and pulled up on a backwater road on the way to visit her family. I punched the location into the TomTom and got there within an hour or so. I reached the location and removed the wrong fuel out of the car. Whilst I was working she told me, "Now I'm becoming rather absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the car taking diesel since I had only just got it a few days ago when my old one, which I had owned for about twenty five years, finally gave up the ghost". I finished the job and she gifted me a peppermint and said thank you. Such a lovely lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car Warmlake - Petrol in Diesel Car Warmlake

Now I'm not actually very inclined to doing work weekends, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I'd just come away from home filled with a tasty dinner prepared for us by the missus, and I was on the way to help a guy who put the incorrect fuel in his Warmlake. He was situated nearby therefore I arrived there quickly. Just as I arrived at the vehicle and got busy draining he explained to me "Praise God! I foolishly had my concentration on other considerations and failed to perceive I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it possible I brought about damage simply by starting it?" I determined truth be told there probably should not be any kind of problems and that I'd personally drain the wrong fuel right away for him. Naturally I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and put in the suitable fuel, and one more happy motorist had the ability to continue his traveling without any difficulty. He could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and this is actually what makes earning a living on weekends a little better for me!


The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!




After arrival

Once our skilled technician arrives at your location he will check your car to verify if it is truly the case of incorrect fuel in the vehicle. And if it isn't he will not need to do the drain and will only charge you a nominal fee.

If, as it is in most situations, it is an issue of having the wrong fuel in the car, our technician is completely equipped and experienced to drain out the fuel, flush the system and fill the vehicle with the correct kind of fuel. You should not worry that we over-charge you for the fresh fuel; our cost is exactly like the current pump price. And when it's time to pay, we can accept all major credit and debit cards, as we understand you may not take enough cash and have probably stopped a long way from the nearest cash machine.

Other Services

This could be of interest to you.

You may be interested to discover the other services we provide too.

After our technician has emptied a few fuel systems through the day, they will have a tank full of contaminated fuel they need to dispose of. Nowadays, such fuel should be dumped properly since pouring it out might contaminate the environment and the local water supply. We are completely equipped, and Environment Agency authorized to securely dump contaminated fuel.

Dumping the contaminated fuel is also a service of its own which we provide to private and commercial customers. If you have a private business 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 job in accordance to the environmental law specified.

Contamination with AdBlue or Water

Contamination of fuel by water is another problem which can make your car function badly. Symptoms stated above for an engine with the wrong 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. This situation of water contamination can extend its damage to the fuel filters.

You can also observe the same symptoms if AdBlue is added int the diesel tank. This additive which is used 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. If added manually, this should be carried out by somebody who knows the proper place to put it.

But you can relax if you experience any of the above issues since we can flush the system just like in the case of incorrect fuel. So, if your issue is incorrect fuel, water contaminated fuel, damaged fuel filters or AdBlue into the wrong tank, don’t worry, we can fix it for you thus allowing you to continue with your journey.

Be prepared to get back on the road soon

We always try to solve the issue within the shortest time possible so you don’t stay on the road for more than 30 minutes. As our mobile technician carries out the job, find out about our other services as you wait. We try to guarantee you that you will be back on the road after a very short time.

At times wrong fuel in a vehicle can also result in more problems, like the presence of air in the fuel system or a flat battery. But our experts have all the abilities and tools to put it all right and get you back on the road.

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

What a fantastic night's sleep! 7:30 on a gloomy Monday and we were on my way to assist an elder woman who had put petrol in her diesel Warmlake.

I got to the location and extracted the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing it she said, "Now I'm becoming rather forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car working with diesel since I'd only just bought it a short while ago after my previous car, which I'd owned for over thirty years, inevitably broke down". I got the job done and she offered me a toffee and said thanks. What a precious lady!

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 anywhere in Kent to 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.

Normal Misfuel Signs and symptoms:
