Petrol in the diesel car or truck in Danesbury? Thanks for visiting Wrong Fuel SoS. Call us and enquire exactly how we could aid you to get you back on the road again.
It was just before 6 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless afternoon, it had not given up on raining! Dan and me were relaxing talking about the weekend's sports, waiting for the 6th fuel drain to come in. Eventually we got the phone call from a girl on a business trip who had gone to the Shell petrol garage in Danesbury and filled petrol in her diesel pristine Peugeot Bipper rental. The unfortunate lady was pretty irritated it seemed, crying "I can't believe I've destroyed the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol car that I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that these things sadly often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure space and, seeing as it was just a few minutes from our van, we were able to get to the customer rather quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she was able to get back to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got really drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home relaxed and not so worried. Another misfuel correction in Hertfordshire done well in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a significant condition to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.
Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel can potentially contribute to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed fully, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations quite quickly.
Take note though that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Danesbury
Now I'm not actually overly hot for working on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I'd only just come away from the wife and kids after a wonderful roast cooked by the missus, and I was on my way to deal with a guy who filled the incorrect fuel in his aunt's BMW Z4. He was situated in Danesbury so it wouldn't be a long time before I reached him. As I pulled up right behind the car and started work he told me "Thank the Almighty! I had my thoughts on other stuff and failed to grasp that I have put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I inflicted any kind of harm through running it?" I revealed that truth be told there shouldn't be damage and that also I would get the contaminated fuel drained right away for him. It goes without saying that I got the fuel drained from the car and filled up with some appropriate fuel, and then another contented client was able to continue on his traveling without any subsequent bother. The man did not stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what can make earning a living on Sundays in Hertfordshire just that little bit better to me!
Wrong Fuel Doctor Danesbury - Fuel Rescue Danesbury
This really was an unsociable time to be up. It was roughly sunrise and nobody was around. It had become rather uneventful so far, and me and Paul were relaxing looking at a number of old papers. This was an unusual peaceful time in Hertfordshire. It was indeed so tranquil that the instant my mobile finally rang it made me jump! The person explained: "I've ended my overnight shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in the diesel expensive Suzuki Sidekick by mistake". We instructed him to let us know where he was and we left, reaching him in Danesbury only half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was extracted from the vehicle and he thanked us for coming so quickly. While we were returning to the depot we spotted two women on the side of the road who looked like they suffered a flat. As a result we stopped to change it, much to their elation.

- 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.
