Wrong Fuel in Car Broomfield, Wiltshire

Local Call-Out and Roadside Repair in Wiltshire

In the event you have put petrol in your diesel automobile in Broomfield we are the guys you really should call. We cater to the entirety of the Broomfield territory and all nearby sectors.

It was before five pm on a Friday and although we were assured a dry afternoon, it had not given up on raining! Ray and I were seated talking about the rugby results, prepared for the 8th fuel drain to come in. Finally we received the call from a girl on a business expedition who had gone to the Shell filling station in Broomfield and put petrol in her diesel khaki green Dodge Sprinter hire car by mistake. She was somewhat irritated apparently, telling me "I just can't believe that I have messed up the car! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to fret, plus that such things regrettably do happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a secure position and, since it was no more than a few miles away from our van, we could get to the lady quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was living at. Even though we got extremely soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home relaxed and a lot less anxious. One more misfuel correction in Wiltshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Broomfield (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a comprehensive Wiltshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill your car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump price) to fill up your car or truck. They will take care of any of the common issues which may accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to address in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel can easily bring about idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases pretty quickly.

You should know however that any time the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.


Wrong Fuel in Car in SN14 Postcode - Broomfield Misfueling

Just had a good night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a warm Saturday and we were en route to help an older lady who had put petrol in her diesel spotless Nissan Murano in Broomfield. She informed us that she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and was stranded along a rural road on route to visit her godchildren. I got the location punched straight into the TomTom and got there inside 60 minutes. I arrived at the location and removed the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she explained, "I am becoming somewhat absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car needing diesel seeing that I had only just acquired it a week ago because my former one, which I owned for in excess of thirty years, inevitably stopped working". I got the job done and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a pleasant Wiltshire lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Broomfield

I'm not actually too excited about running on weekends, and a week ago was the same. I'd just come away from the wife and kids following a superb dinner prepared by the wife, and I was off to assist a fellow because he filled the incorrect petrol in his raspberry red VW Touareg 2. He was stationed in Broomfield thus it wouldn't be a long time before I reached him. As I arrived at the car and started work he told me "Thank the Almighty! I foolishly had my attention on something else and did not grasp that I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I inflicted any harm as a result of running it?" I revealed truth be told there shouldn't be damage and that I'd get the contaminated fuel drained as quickly as possible. Needless to say I drained the fuel from the car and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and yet another pleased motorist was able to continue his journey without the need for bother. The guy couldn't stop thanking me, and that is actually what makes operating on Sundays in Wiltshire that tiny bit easier for me!

It truly was the night shift. It was about dawn and hardly anyone was stirring. It had been rather dead until now, and Ray and I were sitting about reading several old magazines. That was an unusual restful hour in Wiltshire. Actually it was that quiet that the moment the phone eventually rang I leaped with surprise! The person said: "I've only just finished my evening shift and incredibly put petrol in the diesel teal Volkswagen Beetle by mistake". I got him to let us know where he was and we headed out, getting to him in Broomfield no more than an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned from the motor. He said thanks a lot for coming out so promptly. While we were heading back home we spotted two ladies at the side of the road who seemed like they suffered a flat. So we stopped to help them change it, much to their elation.

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.
