Wrong Fuel in Car Dogley Lane - Petrol in Diesel Car Dogley Lane

It was after 6 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were sitting talking about the recent footy rankings, waiting for the next call to come in. Eventually we received a phone call from a lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Esso filling garage and put petrol in a diesel Dogley Lane rental by mistake. The unfortunate thing was rather irritated apparently, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that things like this unfortunately do happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a secure spot and, seeing that it was just a short distance off from where we were, we could find the customer swiftly. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to go home to the hotel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got pretty soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive away contented and much less stressed. Yet another job done well in my books!



Indicators of incorrect fuel

After refueling your tank, your vehicle may start experiencing some signs but you might not be able to grasp them all. In the event your engine starts sputtering, or if you start seeing lots of smoke coming out of the exhaust, or if your vehicle starts losing power regardless of how much you press the accelerator, or if your car comes to a stop, then you can suspect that you have put the incorrect fuel in your vehicle.

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!



The fact that you now are aware the signs of wrong fuel in vehicle or have experienced it, it will help you notice the issue if it happens again in future.

Aside from incorrect fuel in your vehicle, water contamination can also cause your vehicle to run badly before coming to a halt, regardless of the kind of gas you use as a propellant. Thus, if your car starts showing the above signs, you should not only suspect wrong fuel but also water contamination.

Adblue is a diesel system additive usually put in a vehicle to make exhaust gases less polluted. However, it should only be used by professionals who understand where and how to use it. If not, your vehicle will start running badly. The wrong usage can, however, be avoided by using its own AdBlue tank and filler cap. When someone who is inexperienced in administering AdBlue correctly, it is very common that they miss the mark.

The signs of AdBlue contamination also include the car not running perfectly and eventually stopping. Good news is we are always ready to help. Our technicians are experts in this field too in addition to issues dealing with water contamination and incorrect fuel in the vehicle.

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 West Yorkshire 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.
