Wrong Fuel in Car Wyke - Petrol in Diesel Car Wyke
I wouldn't like conking out in a car running on the wrong fuel on the road. Our last customer who put the wrong fuel in her car (Wyke) ran into literally that type of headache: "As you know I foolishly filled my car with the wrong fuel like a absolute fool. I was so worried about contaminating my fuel that I was besides myself. But I shouldn't have worried because you were fantastic in draining and cleaning my car."
Signs of the Problem and its Causes
You will probably have just experienced the signs of having the wrong fuel in your vehicle, 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
- The exhaust produces lots of smoke
- Your car won't have any power no matter how hard you press the accelerator
- Your car will ultimately stop working altogether
We learn from experiences and mistakes so we shouldn't get too down so much once we face such scenarios since they make us more careful and equip us with the appropriate mentality and skills on how to deal with such issues in future.
But there are ways in which you can avoid being in similar situation once again and they include not being in a hurry, concentrating when filling up, and avoiding being in a strange car which you are not used to traveling in.
Besides wrong fuel in your car, water contamination can also cause your vehicle to run poorly before coming to a halt, regardless of the type of gas you use as a propellant. So, in case you experience the above signs, then you should suspect the two.
A lot of modern diesel engines utilize AdBlue, a system that lowers the pollution of the engine. The amount of AdBlue added to your vehicle must be of appropriate ratio to avoid further problem. It's for this reason, AdBlue has a separate tank installed somewhere. If you get somebody to directly add this to your tank without knowing the proper procedure, it's more likely to cause problem to your engine. Again, the signs are very like those stated above, and we can put things right for you. Here's our message to you, "whatever happens to your engine, we'll be your helping hand any time of the day, wherever you are".
The Right Kit and Know-how
You are thinking that by doing it alone or seeking a friend who knows about cars can help you save money. That's a mistaken belief! Whatever kind of vehicle you have got, all of our standby mobile mechanics are fully equipped with the right training and knowledge. Professional tools are all in the van to each of the mechanics so they can quickly access them even in remote locations. Keep in mind, fuel is designed to ignite and shouldn't be handled by anybody who isn't fully trained to do so.
Getting Rid of Waste Fuel
After effectively draining out the wrong fuel in your vehicle, we make sure that the proper storage and proper disposal of contaminated fuel follow. We also deliver 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 get access to them, we can drain them. On your behalf, we can then dispose the waste fuel safely and according to the law of the land.
Fuel Drain Invoicing
Whether you would like to claim back the cost of our service from your insurance firm, or your car is a company vehicle or van, we can give you a full VAT invoice to keep the accountants happy.
Sometimes you may report wrong or contaminated fuel while it is not the case. In such situations, our mechanic will still diagnose and attempt to address the problem. They will also inform you of any changes in price.
Will it take long
Our mechanics usually take less than 30 minutes to solve the problem. Hence you don’t have to worry about standing on the road for a long time. And as long as our mechanics have reached your place, rest assured that you will soon resume your journey. You can always start getting ready to continue your journey once our technician shows up at the vehicle because they do their repairs in the shortest time possible.
Finally, I am really thankful that you made that phone call. By doing so, you should be able to avoid the problems connected with the incorrect fuel in a car.

A few reviews:
Wrong Fuel in Car Wyke - Petrol in Diesel Car Wyke
A person phoned us from his house on a street. He exclaimed, "My car (a Wyke) is not running and is generating dreadful sounds when I flip the key." He admitted that he put unleaded in his diesel car but then imagined he would solve the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We arrived promptly, carried out the drain and filled it up once again with fresh Diesel. He said that he would be absolutely sure to tell people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to get it drained immediately.
Wrong Fuel Doctor Wyke - Fuel Rescue Wyke
I'd had a perfect day cycling during my holiday and was feeling pleased with myself the following working day as I was en route to assist a young couple who were holidaying. They had conked out after putting diesel into their Wyke, and the car was approximately half an hour away. I showed up at their location and smiled while I heard to the wife telling her man off for actually being so daft. "Just how could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I tried to tell her that this takes place continuously and that it's absolutely nothing to be concerned about, even so he still got his ear bent by his missus. I felt sorry for the chap. Anyway, I removed the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the right fuel. Watching them drive off I waved so long and pondered on what her indoors would do to me if ever I made the very same mistake... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!
