Wrong Fuel in Car Red Hill - Petrol in Diesel Car Red Hill

We carried out a fuel drain for a customer whose automobile had ground to a halt in a road soon after he had put unleaded in his diesel car. We arrived to find the driver patiently waiting for us in his Red Hill - he'd been studying his work. We swiftly cleared the wrong fuel and he was in a position to continue his journey . "I was surprised. Your technician was quick and cost-effective. Thank you so much."



You may have strange symptoms in your vehicle but you are uncertain if it has connected with the presence of incorrect fuel. We have heard cases of clients having similar suspicions only for our technicians to realise a whole different issue. For you to be sure that your car is experiencing problems due to incorrect fuel, we have put together some of the common signs for you. If you hear your engine spluttering and not running smoothly, or observe a lot of smoke from your exhaust causing no power to the car and hence forcing the car to a stop, then that is clear sign of burning the wrong fuel.

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



The fact that you now know the signs of incorrect fuel in vehicle or have experienced it, it will help you notice the problem if it occurs again in future. Engaging in mistakes such as speeding, concentrating on different things and allowing the autopilot do all of it especially when driving a vehicle that you are unfamiliar with for instance a borrowed or hired car is discouraged.

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

Adblue is a diesel system additive frequently put in a vehicle to make exhaust gases less toxic. But it can only be used by individuals who know how to use it properly. Otherwise, it may end up creating problems to your car. The wrong usage can, however, be avoided through the use of its own AdBlue tank and filler cap. 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.

Signs of AdBlue contamination also include the car not moving perfectly and eventually stopping. Luckily, you have us. Our mobile technicians are used to coping with a wide range of vehicle issues, not just water contamination or having the incorrect fuel in the car but this kind of problem too.


Flammable materials require not only adequate expertise, but also a range of relevant equipment to deal with them properly. Fuel for example, can ignite quickly, turning a small problem into a tragic one. You can deal with the issue yourself or work with a friend to do it so as to save money, but you are advised to hire an expert so as to avoid further fuel related problem.

Furthermore, our technicians are distributed across the country, and they are trained to deal with various cars and sort different issues at very reasonable prices and over an incredibly short time.


Correct Disposal

Proper disposal of contaminated fuel is not just part of the wrong fuel service but in addition a service that we offer to businesses and private individuals separately. All we ask from our customers who ask us to drain, store or dispose of the contaminated oil is that they give us full access to the containers and whether they are fixed storage containers, mobile tanks or a combination of tanks, they can trust us to do it in an appropriate and environmentally friendly way.


You might have reported the wrong fuel or contaminated fuel in your car, but our technicians still have to verify and make sure. If they learn that it is not, they will let you know and then ask for a small call-out fee.


How long does a fuel drain take

You don't have to fret about waiting for long until the mechanic is done. We normally target around 30 minutes. After that, you will be back on the road.

By letting us help you, we hope to make you realise that this issue is not as bad as you first anticipated. Thanks for letting us extend our professional services to you.

Wrong Fuel in Car Red Hill - Petrol in Diesel Car Red Hill

I had a perfect evening hiking during my off day and was feeling cheerful with myself the next working day as I headed out to help a new couple who were away. They broken down after adding the wrong fuel in their Red Hill, and the car was approximately half an hour away. I showed up at their location and laughed as I listened to the wife telling off her hubby for being so stupid. "How could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this goes on on a regular basis and that it's really absolutely nothing to fret about, even so he still had an ear bashing. I felt sorry for the guy. In any case, I drained out the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the right fuel. Watching while they drove down the road I mouthed bon voyage and considered what her indoors would do to me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would never ever hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Red Hill - Fuel Rescue Red Hill

A woman with her kids in her diesel Red Hill had put £30 of petrol at the Sainsburys petrol station. She phoned us weeping and genuinely distraught as she had never wrong fueled and didn't know what would happen to her car in doing so. We told her that everything would be fine and that she would be on the road soon. When we arrived on scene she was still upset but as our technician started work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she discovered that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She quickly cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I just can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Particularly with the children on board."

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.
