This was an unsociable hour to be up. It was roughly dawn and noone was around. It was fairly dead so far, and me and Paul were loafing about perusing a couple of old papers. It was an unusual restful time. Actually it was in fact so relaxing that the moment my mobile rang I leaped with surprise! The customer on the phone stated: "I have concluded my evening shift and incredibly filled the wrong fuel in my Rothwell in error". We asked him to let us know just where he was and we left, ending up no more than 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was extracted from the motor and he said thanks for arriving so promptly. While we were going back to the depot we spotted two women at the edge of the highway who looked like they had a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled up to change it, to their delight.

A lot of modern diesel engines make use of AdBlue, a system that decreases the air pollution of the engine. The correct amount of AdBlue to be added in the fuel system is very crucial.

You will start observing similar symptoms mentioned above but you shouldn't be worried about it. Here's our personal message to you, "whatever happens to your engine, we'll be your helping hand at any time of the day, anywhere you are".

Wrong Fuel in Car Rothwell - Petrol in Diesel Car Rothwell

A couple weeks ago a young man phoned us right after his Rothwell broke down in the middle of the street. He had inadvertently put unleaded in the diesel car and got to the road before needing to pull up. It was really early in the day and our fuel drainer, who resides close by, got to him in about 20 minutes. We were able to remove the wrong fuel and put clean diesel back into the car. "Genuine thanks to you for your timely response, particularly at 1 a.m., I genuinely am grateful for it."

A woman driving nearby contacted us shortly after she had tried to get her misfueled car to work. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Rothwell and, like countless prior to her, thought that she would be able to simply top up her car with diesel and it'd be alright. The car was spluttering and then it stopped when she got to the entrance of her office. We immediately went to work on the fuel drain following her call and got it fixed inside one hour whilst she was working. She came out soon after and thanked us saying, "I'm extremely glad you sorted my vehicle."

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.

This really was an unsociable hour to be up. It was roughly 3:30am and noone was about. It had been fairly dead up to now, and me and Ray were loafing around reading a few old papers. It was an uncommon restful moment. It was that peaceful that when the phone ultimately rang I leaped! The motorist on the other end stated: "I only just concluded my evening shift and incredibly poured petrol in the diesel Rothwell in error". I told him to inform us where the vehicle was situated and we hit the road, ending up only half an hour later. The fuel was taken out from the engine and he thanked us for coming so rapidly. While we were going back to base we saw two women at the side of the street who looked like they suffered a flat. As a result we got out to change it, much to their elation.
