Wrong Fuel in Car Bramham - Petrol in Diesel Car Bramham
A somewhat alarmed driver called us from the Texaco filling station to advise us that he had put petrol in his diesel Bramham; he wasn't totally certain how he'd managed to do it. We informed him it was no problem and soon enough had our engineer with him to drain the incorrect fuel from his vehicle. Having taken away the incorrect fuel, he was shortly back on the road. He told us; "I can't believe I put the wrong fuel in my car. And the man who was sent to undertake the fuel drain was especially excellent - he didn't make me look and feel a fool."
Things to look for if you have put wrong fuel in vehicle
Whenever you refuel your vehicle tank with the incorrect fuel, your vehicle may start giving many signals that should get you alarmed, unfortunately, you may be unable to master them all. However, if your engine starts sputtering or if you start seeing a lot of smoke emerging from the exhaust, or your vehicle stops and shows no power at all even if you push the accelerator harder and harder, then it is obvious that you have put the incorrect fuel in your vehicle.

Having said so, if you ever find yourself in a strange vehicle or a car where the autopilot is operating, you should just stay calm. Having this information, knowing signs of incorrect fuel in your vehicle or other problems should be easy. It would not matter if you are concentrating on the problem or not, you will just detect it.
As pointed out earlier, there are other problems that could be the cause of your vehicle problems aside from wrong fuel. Water contamination is one of them, which causes similar bad car performance, usually ending in your vehicle breaking down. Thus, if your car starts showing the aforementioned signs, you should not only suspect wrong fuel but also water contamination.
In order to improve the cleanliness of modern diesel engines exhausts today, owner uses AdBlue. Having the right ratio of AdBlue to fuel is significant, hence why a separate tank for the AdBlue. If you get someone to directly add this to your tank without knowing the right procedure, it's more likely to cause trouble to your engine. Again, the symptoms are very like those stated above, and we can put things right for you. So the message is, ?if your engine splutters, smokes and stops, we can certainly help, and get you going again, whatever the cause?.

Wrong Fuel in Car Bramham - Petrol in Diesel Car Bramham
A gentleman called us saying he mistakenly pumped the wrong fuel in his diesel Bramham. "I can't believe it! I can't believe I put petrol in my lovely diesel car!" It took our engineer approximately fifty minutes to fully drain the contaminated fuel from the car. He thoroughly purged the fuel lines, filter and pumps and then put fresh fuel in the vehicle. The customer was completely satisfied and it hadn't cost him car dealership prices to have the job professionally done.
Wrong Fuel Doctor Bramham - Fuel Rescue Bramham
I had appreciated a great day fishing during my off day and was feeling pleased the following morning as I set out to assist a young family holidaying. They'd pulled over after putting the wrong fuel in their Bramham, and the car was about half an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and smiled while I listened to the woman telling her hubby off for actually being so foolish. "Precisely how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this kind of thing happens on a regular basis and that it is absolutely nothing to be anxious about, even so he still got an ear bashing by his missus. Unlucky boy. At any rate, I removed the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some appropriate fuel. As they drove off I mouthed goodbye and wondered what her indoors would say to me if ever I made the same mistake... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
