Wrong Fuel in Car New Scarbro - Petrol in Diesel Car New Scarbro
It was before 10 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't given up on pouring! Brian and I were resting there going over the sports results, at the ready for the next telephone call of the day to come in. Before long we got a call from a girl on a company expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol station and put the wrong fuel in a diesel New Scarbro rental. She was pretty affected by the sounds of it, saying "I still cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that such things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a secure space and, since it was just a short distance away from where we were, we were able to find the customer rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Although we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive off relaxed and not so concerned. A misfuel correction done well in my mind!
You may experience strange signs in your car but you are unsure if it has something to do with the presence of wrong fuel. We have heard cases of clients having similar suspicions only for our technicians to realise a whole different problem. For you to be sure that your car is experiencing problems due to wrong fuel, we have put together some of the usual signs for you. Check for signs that are clear indications of incorrect fuel, such as a non-smooth or spluttering engine, excessive smoke coming out of your exhaust, and often forcing your car to a stop as a result.
Noting all of the above, I suppose you'll be careful in your next stop at the petrol station to refill. You'll want to go over what are the potential causes of why it happened.
- You're in a situation where you are confused while in a hurry
- You're in autopilot mode and not checking
- You're using a vehicle you are not used to driving, borrowed or hired
Other Fuel Issues in New Scarbro
Issues in the fuel system may not only due to incorrect fuel in the car. Fuel contaminated with water will also cause your vehicle to function poorly and ultimately stop altogether. It doesn't matter if your vehicle runs on petrol or diesel, water contamination will cause very similar signs to those described above.
Adblue is a diesel system additive usually put in a vehicle to make exhaust gases less dirty. However, it should only be utilized by professionals who understand where and how to use it. Or else, it would cause issues and problems to your vehicle. To avoid any problems, AdBlue should be contained in a separate tank. But it is very possible to experience wrong AdBlue usage, especially if the additive is added directly to the fuel or added by somebody who is not aware of the procedure.
Just like when a vehicle has incorrect fuel, AdBlue also causes the vehicle not to move smoothly and eventually lead to the car to stop. Good news is we are always ready to help. Our mobile technicians are used to dealing with a wide range of car problems, not only water contamination or having the incorrect fuel in the vehicle but this kind of issue too.
