Wrong Fuel in Car Upper Moor Side - Petrol in Diesel Car Upper Moor Side

We completed a wrong fuel retrieval job on the drive of a spectacular property not so long ago. "I put petrol in my diesel car and was able to very nearly arrive at home when my car broke down." Our technician went out, despite the fact that it was rather late at night, and carried out a thorough fuel drain and cleanse on the Upper Moor Side to everyone's satisfaction.



Signs of the Problem and its Causes

You will likely have just encountered the signs of having the wrong fuel in your car, but in the heat of the moment, you may not have taken them all in so here they are again for future reference, just in case:

  • Spluttering engine and it won't run efficiently
  • If you notice the exhaust, you will notice plenty of smoke coming out
  • Even you fully press the accelerator, the engine still seems no power to run
  • The vehicle will stop on its own

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!



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 look back at what precisely are the possible causes of why it happened.

  • You're in a situation where you are confused while in a hurry
  • Out of concentration because you are on autopilot
  • Car you are utilizing is borrowed, you're not familiar with it

You should also know that wrong fuel is not the only issue that can cause your vehicle to show the aforementioned signs. The presence of water in fuel is another issue which can make your vehicle not run smoothly and eventually stop, no matter the type of fuel used. So, should you experience the above signs, then you should suspect the two.

The running of the engine is typically improved utilizing a diesel system additive called AdBlue. But it can only be used by individuals who know how to use it correctly. Or else, it would cause issues and problems to your vehicle. The wrong usage can, however, be avoided through the use of its own AdBlue tank and filler cap. The probability of misusing AdBlue is very high especially if done by someone with no knowledge in this.

Such a problem is also indicated by the vehicle not moving smoothly hence reduced power and an eventual stoppage. Good news is we are at all times willing to help. Our technicians are not just skilled on how to solve this problem but also on how to handle the problem of incorrect fuel and water contamination.


The Right Kit and Know-how

You are thinking that by carrying it out alone or seeking a friend who knows about cars can help you save some money. Wrong! Our mobile technicians on post around the country are all properly trained on all of the services we deliver, whatever car it is. Professional tools are all in the van to each of the mechanics so they can very easily access them even in remote places. Keep in mind, fuel is meant to ignite and shouldn't be handled by anyone who isn't properly trained to do so.

Avoid further expenses by not selecting something cheap. You might decide to deal with the issue by yourself or let a friend do it for you which may results in more expenses if the car catches fire. You should also be aware that you will have to purchase fresh fuel hence more expenses due to transport. Letting our technicians to serve is both secure and economical. We are reasonable and fair in pricing. So bringing fresh and clean fuel to re-fill your tank would not add too much to the general expenses involved. Side-note, after re-filling your vehicle with clean fuel, we will also dispose your contaminated fuel in accordance with the existing laws.


Safe and Legal Disposal

Draining, storage and disposal of contaminated fuel is an important part of the procedure when helping our customers who have put the incorrect fuel in their car. We also offer this as a separate service to private individuals or companies. Whether you have a fixed storage tank, a mobile bowser or a selection of containers filled with contaminated fuel, as long as we can gain access to them, we can drain them. If you can't do it, on your behalf we'll do the disposal in accordance with the laws.


There's also a probability, though it's a rare case, that the problem is actually not incorrect or contaminated fuel, don't fret, you can still go back to your trip. He will identify what really the problem is and its cause. Instead of the agreed quoted cost, he'll only ask you a reasonable call out charge.


How long does a fuel drain take

Don't worry about hanging around for ages once our technician arrives there. We typically target around 30 minutes. After that, you will be back to driving.

Once you are back driving your vehicle, you would have realized that having the incorrect fuel in your car is not that disastrous at all and we thank you for letting us to lend a helping hand.

Wrong Fuel in Car Upper Moor Side - Petrol in Diesel Car Upper Moor Side

Ahhh, that was a good night of sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Saturday and I was on my way to assist an elder lovely lady after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel Upper Moor Side. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station and broken down along a country road on route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got her location plugged straight into the TomTom and was on-scene inside an hour. I reached the location and drained the wrong fuel in the car car. Whilst I was working she told me, "I have been getting relatively absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle needing diesel as I had just bought it a week back when my former car, which I had for about 30 years, finally gave up the ghost". I got the job done and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. What a pleasant lady!

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.
