Wrong Fuel in Car Wierton - Petrol in Diesel Car Wierton

A young lady with a full car of children in her diesel Wierton had filled her vehicle with £45 of petrol at the Tesco station. She contacted us weeping and extremely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car before and didn't know what might happen to her vehicle in doing so. We assured her that all should be fine and that she would be ready to go soon. When we arrived she was still distressed but while our engineer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she recognised that help was at hand and her car wasn't wrecked. She soon brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I really can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Particularly with the little ones on board."


The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!




When we get to your location

The first task that our technician will do once he arrives at your location is to verify if the problem you reported via our customer service is correct or not - misfuelling. If the finding is negative, no services will be carried out on fixing the suspected wrong fuel in a vehicle. You won't be charged for the quoted services, instead, a call out charge will be asked of you.

If the technician learns that it is really the case of wrong fuel then he will start fixing it instantly as he already has the fresh fuel and the required equipment to fix the problem. He will instantly remove mixed fuel and then change it with fresh fuel, and we won’t charge you extra on the fresh fuel. You also do not have to fret if you don't have enough cash with you, we understand your situation and we will take any major debit or credit card.

Other Services

This could be of interest to you.

You might be thinking how else we might be of assistance to you.

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, there is a serious issue that such fuel could significantly damage the environment or even contaminate the water supply so you are not allowed to casually dump it anywhere. But we can handle it for you since we have the best tools, and we are authorized by the Environment Agency to do so.

This is a unique service that we provide to business and private customers. All you should do is grant us access, and it won’t matter if it is in a fixed storage tank, mobile storage tank or other container, we will drain it. Rest assured that we will empty out the contaminated fuel and get rid of it safely and securely to the right regulations.

Contamination with AdBlue or Water

Fuel system mixed with water can make the engine of your vehicle behave badly. It will make it exhibit the same symptoms as the wrong fuel in the car, such as low power, irregular running, production of excess smoke and even stalling. In cases of wrong fuel, the fuel filter won't be affected. But with water contamination, it should be replaced.

The mistake of putting AdBlue into the fuel (AdBlue: a solution used to enhance the cleanliness of engine exhausts) can also cause the above symptoms. AdBlue contamination can also take place if it is used by somebody who has no know-how on how or where it should be added. For correct operation of it, AdBlue should only be added through its own separate tank and dosing system rather than added to the fuel tank.

In both of the cases above, we can offer the same fuel system draining, flushing and refilling service as we do if you put the incorrect fuel in your car. So, regardless of what the cause we can get you on your way. We can also replace those fuel filters damaged by water.

We will reach your vehicle soon. 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 sure to carry on with your journey soon.

In some cases, having the wrong fuel in the system may cause other troubles with a car such as a flat battery or air locks. But you also don’t have to worry since we also have the equipment and abilities to use in sorting them out so as to enable you to continue with your journey.

We are aware that you experienced a difficult moment today, but since you chose to call us, we are able to restore your peace of mind by quickly getting you back to your journey.

Wrong Fuel in Car Wierton - Petrol in Diesel Car Wierton

I appreciated a wonderful evening golfing during the weekend and was feeling cheerful with myself the following working day as I headed out to assist a young family who were on holiday. They'd conked out after adding petrol in their Wierton, and they were about half an hour away. I got there at their location and laughed to myself as I listened to the wife chastising her hubby for being so daft. "Just how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I attempted to tell her that this situation happens continuously and that it's absolutely nothing to get worried about, nonetheless he all the same had his ear bent. I felt sorry for the lad. Anyhow, I removed the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive off I mouthed good bye and thought about what my wife would tell me in the event that I made the very same blunder... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Wierton - Fuel Rescue Wierton

It was about 9 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were resting there discussing the recent golf, waiting for the sixth telephone call that day to come in. In due time we had a call from a girl on a business trip who had pulled into the Shell petrol garage and filled petrol in her diesel Wierton rental car. She was very troubled apparently, crying "I can not believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that things like this sadly happen. She was able to relocate the car into a safe position and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes off from the office, we could find the woman rather quickly. The bad fuel was taken out so she could go home to the Travelodge she was staying at. Despite the fact we got fairly soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive away relaxed and not so worried. A job well done in my opinion!

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.
