Wrong Fuel in Car Otley - Petrol in Diesel Car Otley

I am not actually excessively interested in doing work on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I had only just left home after a lovely lunch cooked for us by the wife, and I was en route to deal with a guy who had put the wrong petrol in his Otley. He was situated nearby thus it wasn't long before I arrived with him. As I arrived at the vehicle and got out he explained to me "Thank God! I incredibly had my thoughts on stuff and didn't ascertain I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. I need to know if I created problems simply by running it?" I stated generally there shouldn't be problems and also I'd personally get the contaminated fuel drained right away for him. Obviously I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and filled it with some appropriate fuel, and so another satisfied client was able to carry on with their journey without bother. The gentleman could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that is what tends to make earning a living on Sundays a tiny bit less painful to me!

Water contamination is one of them, which causes similar bad vehicle performance, typically ending in your car breaking down. Thus, if your vehicle starts showing the aforementioned signs, you should not only suspect wrong fuel but also water contamination.

If you get somebody to directly add this to your tank without knowing the correct procedure, it's more likely to cause problem to your engine. Again, the signs are very like those described above, and we can put things right for you.

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.
