Wrong Fuel in Car New Farnley - Petrol in Diesel Car New Farnley

We've completed a lot of fuel drains on cars and trucks run with the wrong fuel.

Indicators of wrong fuel

After refueling your tank, your car may begin showing some signs but you might not be able to understand them all. Nonetheless, if you were driving a car, and abruptly you observe that your car is emitting too much smoke through the exhaust and your engine is sputtering abnormally while the car loses power gradually regardless of how much energy you are applying on the accelerator and eventually comes to a halt, then there is little doubt that you are facing an incorrect fuel in your car issue.

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!



Noting all of the above, I suppose you'll be mindful in your next stop at the petrol station to refill. You may come back to think what caused the wrong fuel problem in the first place.

  • You're in a hurry and confused on what to do
  • Out of concentration since you are on autopilot
  • Being in a vehicle you aren't used to - borrowing or hiring a car

You should also bear in mind that wrong fuel is not the only problem that can cause your car to show the aforementioned indications. The presence of water in fuel is another problem which can make your car not run efficiently and eventually stop, no matter the type of fuel utilized. This means that if you experience any of the earlier mentioned signs, they could also be a result of either of the two.

The running of the engine is typically improved using a diesel system additive referred to as AdBlue. But it can only be used by individuals who know how to use it appropriately. If not, your vehicle will start behaving badly. To avoid any problems, AdBlue should be contained in a separate tank. The possibility of misusing AdBlue is quite high particularly if done by someone with no knowledge in this.

Just like when a car has wrong fuel, AdBlue also causes the car not to move smoothly and eventually cause the vehicle to stop. The great thing is that we are here to help. Our technicians are not only skilled on how to deal with this issue but also on how to handle the issue of wrong fuel and water contamination.

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.

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.

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.
