Wrong Fuel in Car Brearley - Petrol in Diesel Car Brearley

We performed a wrong fuel retrieval exercise outside a spectacular property not so long ago. "I had put petrol in my diesel car and was able to very nearly arrive at home when my car cut out." Our technician went out, despite the fact that it was quite late at night, and carried out a thorough fuel drain and cleanse on the Brearley to everyone's satisfaction.



You may have strange symptoms in your car but you are unsure if it has connected with the presence of incorrect fuel. We have many the same cases of suspicions experienced by our customers, only for our technicians to find out a totally different problem upon arrival. To avoid any doubt, try having these signs of the wrong fuel in your fingertip. If you hear your engine spluttering and not running nicely, or observe a lot of smoke from your exhaust causing no power to the car and hence forcing the vehicle to a stop, then that is clear indication of burning the wrong fuel.

Other Fuel Issues in Brearley

Putting the incorrect fuel in your vehicle isn't the only thing that can cause problems. Water can contaminate your fuel system too, causing the engine to stop or run abnormally. Regardless of what type of fuel you use, may it be petrol or diesel, the effects and signs of water contamination to your engine are similar.

Diesel engines (modern ones) in these days make use of AdBlue to reduce nitrous pollution in the exhaust fumes. The amount of AdBlue added to your vehicle should be of appropriate ratio to avoid further problem. It's for this reason, AdBlue has a separate tank mounted somewhere. If someone directly added this to your tank not realizing the correct tank to put it in, your engine will be in big trouble since it is is wrong to mix it with fuel. The signs you will notice is the same as what were mentioned above but don't fret we get it fixed. So the message is, ?if your engine splutters, smokes and stops, we can certainly help, and get you going again, whatever the cause?.


When handling flammable materials, you would require not only the right knowledge but also the right tools. If not, it can cause fire, making the entire scenario disastrous yet it could have been handled easily. It is therefore recommended you involve a professional whenever you are working with fuel related problems, though doing it by yourself or involving a friend may be cheaper.

Furthermore, our technicians are distributed across the country, and they are educated to deal with various cars and sort different troubles at very inexpensive prices and over an incredibly short period.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Brearley - Fuel Rescue Brearley

Just had a great night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Sunday and we were on the way to help an older sweetheart after she had put petrol in her diesel Brearley. I had been told she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and broken down on a rural lane on the way to see her grandchildren. I plugged the location straight into the Satnav and was with her within an hour. I arrived at the stricken lady and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. While I was doing it she explained, "Now I'm becoming fairly absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel seeing that I had only purchased it a week back when my other car, which I'd used for in excess of 25 years, finally died". I completed the drain and she presented me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a pleasant woman!

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.

A lady with a full car of youngsters in her diesel Brearley had filled her car with £30 of petrol at the Sainsburys petrol station. She phoned us sobbing and extremely worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and didn't know what might happen to her car because of it. We assured her that everything would be alright and that she would be up and running soon. When we arrived she was still upset but while our technician began work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she recognised that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She soon enough brightened up and was on her way saying, "I just can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Particularly with the kids in the back."
