Other Fuel Issues in Thurstonland

Vehicle troubles are not attributed only to incorrect fuel in the fuel system. Contamination with other liquid such as water can cause your engine to stop from working or function normally. No matter what type of fuel you utilize, may it be petrol or diesel, the results and signs of water contamination to your engine are similar.

Adblue is a diesel system additive typically put in a vehicle to make exhaust gases less polluted. But it can only be used by individuals who know how to use it correctly. If not, your car will start running badly. 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 incorrect AdBlue usage, particularly if the additive is added directly to the fuel or added by somebody who is not aware of the process.

The signs of AdBlue contamination also include the car not running perfectly and eventually stopping. Great news is we are always willing to help. Our technicians are experts in this area too in addition to problems dealing with water contamination and wrong fuel in the car.

Wrong Fuel in Car Thurstonland - Petrol in Diesel Car Thurstonland

It was just before 5 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Dan and I were sitting there talking about the weekend's football results, ready for the 6th call to arrive. Eventually we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage and filled petrol in her diesel Thurstonland hire car in error. She was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I simply cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that these things can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe space and, as it was only a short distance off from us, we could arrive at the customer fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly wet, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home satisfied and not so worried. Yet another fuel drain done well in my books!

The car was coughing and then it stopped when she reached the the front of her work. We promptly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and had it repaired in 60 minutes while she was at the office. She came out afterwards and thanked us stating, "I'm really happy you fixed my car."

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.
