Wrong Fuel in Car West Bowling - Petrol in Diesel Car West Bowling

A gentleman stopped on a street required a fuel drain roughly a few weeks ago. His West Bowling was broken down roadside after he had filled up with the wrong fuel. He was relaxed when he contacted us but slightly worried to get his car away from the road seeing that he was triggering considerable traffic. We arrived within 15 minutes because our drainer had finished his previous job. He said, "I simply can not believe I put the wrong fuel in my diesel car and broke down ! My car was coughing I just were forced to pull over and then it just conked."



Indicators of wrong fuel

The signs of wrong fuel are evident, but in most situations you might not be able to observe all of them. If your engine starts sputtering, or if you start seeing a lot of smoke coming out of the exhaust, or if your car starts losing power no matter how much you press the accelerator, or if your car comes to a stop, then you can suspect that you have put the wrong fuel in your car.

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!



We learn from experiences and mistakes so we shouldn't get too down so much whenever we face such situations since they make us more careful and equip us with the appropriate mentality and abilities on how to deal with such issues in future. Engaging in mistakes such as speeding, concentrating on various things and allowing the autopilot do it all particularly when driving a car that you are unfamiliar with for instance a borrowed or hired vehicle is highly discouraged.

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

Addition of too much or too low AdBlue to your car tank also results in too much smoke from the exhaust and a sputtering engine too. Fortunately you have us, so you have absolutely nothing to be worried about. AdBlue is an additive used to enhance the anti-pollution system of the engine and should be utilized by an expert, in fact, it should be added using its own tank instead of being added directly alongside with fuel. You should thus just use it if you are fully aware of its procedure so as to prevent your car from misbehaving because of the wrong usage of AdBlue. But once again, we have got you covered for our mechanics can resolve the problem regardless of whether it is incorrect fuel that got you stuck or wrong usage of AdBlue.


Flammable materials require not only adequate expertise, but also a range of relevant equipment to deal with them properly. If not, it can result in fire, making the entire scenario disastrous yet it could have been managed easily. If you have a car issue that involves fuel or other flammable materials, we suggest you speak to a professional as your first point of action, as opposed to handling it by yourself or involving a friend.

Besides, our technicians are situated throughout the place, and they have all the skill sets and knowledge, and will deal with the problem for you quickly and at an affordable price.


Getting Rid of Waste Fuel

After effectively draining out the incorrect fuel in your car, we ensure that the right storage and proper disposal of contaminated fuel follow. We also offer this as a separate service to private individuals or businesses. Whether you have a fixed storage tank, a mobile bowser or a selection of containers full of contaminated fuel, as long as we can access them, we can drain them. Once the contaminated fuel has been collected, we can properly and legally dispose of it on your behalf.


Sometimes you may report incorrect or contaminated fuel while it is not the case. In such instances, our technicians will first inspect your car to make sure that it is not and then update you on any new charges before taking any further action


How long does it take to drain the wrong fuel

And as long as our mechanics have reached your vehicle, rest assured that you will soon resume your journey.

Wrong Fuel in Car West Bowling - Petrol in Diesel Car West Bowling

A woman with her youngsters in her diesel West Bowling had filled her vehicle with £50 of petrol at the Tesco station. She called us sobbing and genuinely worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and did not know what could happen to her vehicle in doing so. We told her that everything should be alright and that she would be up and running very quickly. When we got there she was visible upset but while our engineer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she discovered that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She soon cheered up and was up and running saying, "I really can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Specifically with the youngsters 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 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.

The driver of a West Bowling was regretful that he put petrol in his diesel car when he got as far as the street and it coughed and ground to a halt. "I've gone and put unleaded in my diesel car," is what he shared with us the initial time he rang. To tell the truth, when he first contacted us he said he'd comparison shop, but he called us back soon enough because our pricing and on-scene times were the most appropriate. As you can imagine, our fuel drainer had him again carrying out his deliveries within the time we had estimated.
