The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Newbottle (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Northamptonshire Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up the car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and refill the car. They can also deal with any of the normal problems which can go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant condition to handle in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel can certainly bring about idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both circumstances quite swiftly.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will be completely wet and ineffective.

I got the drain completed and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. What a lovely Northamptonshire woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Newbottle

I'm not actually very hot for working on weekends, and last week was no different. I had just left the wife and kids following a magnificent lunch cooked by the better half, and I was en route to deal with a fellow who had filled the wrong petrol in his deep grey Daihatsu Rocky. He was situated in Newbottle hence I was there before long. Just as I arrived at the car and stepped out he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I foolishly had my concentration on other stuff and didn't grasp that I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. I need to know if I brought on harm by simply running it?" I said that there probably should not be problems and also that I'd personally get the wrong fuel drained immediately for him. Naturally I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and filled it with the correct fuel, and then another delighted motorist was able to carry on with their traveling without the need for difficulty. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and that tends to make earning a living on weekends in Northamptonshire that little bit better to me!

This was exactly what we call the graveyard shift. It was close to 2:30am and hardly anyone was stirring. It was rather uneventful until now, and me and John were relaxing looking through some old papers. It was an uncommon calm hour in Northamptonshire. It was indeed that tranquil that when my mobile eventually rang I leaped with surprise! The voice explained: "I only just completed my overnight shift and incredibly put petrol in my diesel old Mazda626 in error". I told him to inform us just where the car was located and we headed out, ending up in Newbottle no more than half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the car. He thanked us for coming out so promptly. While we were returning home we noticed two young ladies on the edge of the street who looked like they suffered a puncture. As a result we stopped and helped them change it, much to their elation.

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.
