We got a telephone call from a individual whose Appledore Heath had stopped on a road after a misfuel. "I confused the pumps and put petrol instead of diesel in my car . These guys arrived and sorted out the problem after my vehicle quit." We purged the unleaded from the diesel tank and flushed the fuel lines completely afterwards and the motorist could then continue with his scheduled delivery.


The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!




On arrival of the technician at your location

The first task that our mechanic will do once he arrives at your place is to verify if the issue you reported via our customer service is correct or not - misfuelling. If it is not, he won’t render any service related to the incorrect fuel in the vehicle, and in that situation, you won’t be charged the quoted price but an updated amount.

The above signs are usually an indication of wrong fuel in a vehicle and if we discover that yours is the same problem, we will fix it right away since our technicians bring the required equipment and fresh fuel with them. There are three major reasons why you should select us. The first reason is that we've got the abilities to empty out the incorrect fuel and replace it with the right fuel. The second reason is that we ask for the similar price for fresh fuel as that charged in a service station. And the third reason is that we accept all types of payment, hence if you don’t have sufficient cash with you, we will take payments via any major debit or credit card.

Contamination with Water and AdBlue

You should know that wrong fuel is not the only issue which can make your engine run abnormally. The presence of water in fuel is another issue which can make your car produce lots of smoke, run irregularly, stop or show signs of no power. But unlike wrong fuel, water can cause more damage, such as permanent damage to the fuel filters.

The mistake of putting AdBlue into the fuel (AdBlue: a solution utilized to enhance the cleanliness of engine exhausts) can also cause the above signs. AdBlue contamination can also occur if it is used by somebody who has no knowledge on how or where it should be added. Hence, it should only be utilized by somebody who is aware that it should be added to its own tank rather than being added directly to the fuel.

Still, there's no need to fret. Whatever engine issue you have, whether contaminated fuel with water or AdBlue, we can surely help you. We can get you back to your journey after we carry out the same procedure as fixing an engine with wrong fuel. Works include draining and flushing, then, replacing with fresh fuel. Fuel filters can be possibly damaged by water contamination in your fuel. We can fix it for you.

It truly was the graveyard shift. It was around dawn and almost noone was stirring. It was fairly quiet up to now, and me and Ray were sitting around looking through a number of old papers. This was an unusual calm hour. Actually it was so peaceful that the instant the telephone inevitably rang it made me start! The voice explained: "I have only just ended my overnight shift and incredibly poured petrol in my Appledore Heath by mistake". We asked him to tell us exactly where the car was and we left, reaching him not as much as 30 minutes later. The fuel was cleaned from the motor. He said thanks for coming out so quickly. While we were returning home we saw two ladies on the edge of the highway who appeared to have a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled over to change it, to their delight.

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.
