The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!




When we get to your location

First thing that our mobile technician will do when he reaches you is to assess your car with the aim of verifying if it is actually the issue of wrong fuel. If the finding is negative, no services will be done on fixing the suspected incorrect fuel in the car. You won't be charged for the quoted services, rather, a call out charge will be asked of you.

Signs of car problems mentioned above are an indication that your car has been filled with incorrect fuel. Since we carry the needed tools and fresh fuel, we can fix that issue right away wherever you are. There are three major reasons why you should select us. First of all, our teams are experienced in managing your situation and can get you back on the road quickly. One other reason is our prices for the fuel replacement is the same as the current price in your closest petrol station. The last reason is the means of payment. We take other kinds of payment like debit or credit cards if in case you don't have cash with you.

Contamination with Water and AdBlue

There are other factors that cause engine problems aside from filling your car with the wrong fuel. Such signs as insufficient power, irregular running, excessive smoke, and engine stalling may also be due to fuel that is contaminated with water. Besides, it can make the fuel filters unusable and require replacement.

The same set of symptoms may also be caused by somebody attempting to put AdBlue directly into the fuel tank of a diesel engine. The correct way to add it is via a separate tank and automatic dosing system built into the car.

But you don't need to fret since we can fix both problems for you by applying the same procedure used in solving the matter of wrong fuel. We are always there to fix your vehicle and get you back on the road no matter if it is an issue of the incorrect fuel, fuel contaminated with water, or even AdBlue contamination.

Other Services

Do you know that we offer other services too?

We also deliver other services to our customers after dealing with the matter of wrong fuel, such as disposal of contaminated fuel. The contaminated fuel shouldn't be disposed of by anyone unqualified, but by a professional in this field because fuel disposal incorrectly done can pollute the water supply and damage the surroundings. We are expert in this industry too as we are accredited by Environment agency and we have the right equipment to do this work, both legally and safely.

It is also a service that we give separately to business and private customers at a fee.

Stories from our Denstroude technicians:

Wrong Fuel in Car Denstroude - Petrol in Diesel Car Denstroude

I had a great afternoon golfing on my day off and felt pleased the next working day as I set out to assist a young couple on holiday. They conked out after filling the wrong fuel into their Denstroude, and were roughly an hour's drive away. I arrived at their position and smirked to myself as I listened to the woman telling off her hubby for turning out to be so daft. "Exactly how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I tried to clarify that this comes to pass regularly and that it's truly absolutely nothing to be concerned about, however he still got an ear bashing. Unlucky guy. At any rate, I drained out all the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I shouted goodbye and pondered on what her indoors would say to me if ever I did the exact same thing... I'd never hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Denstroude - Fuel Rescue Denstroude

I am certainly not very interested in doing work on weekends, and a week ago was no different. I had just departed home following a wonderful dinner made for me by the wife, and I was off to assist a gentleman because he filled the incorrect petrol in his Denstroude. He was located nearby so I arrived there almost immediately. Just as I pulled up behind the car and started work he told me "Praise the Lord! I incredibly had my concentration on other things and did not realise I'd put diesel in my petrol car. Have I inflicted any kind of problems by starting it?" I explained that truth be told there should not be any kind of damage and that also I'd personally get the fuel drained at once for him. Needless to say I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and thus yet another delighted client could carry on with their trip without any subsequent difficulty. He could hardly stop thanking me, and this is exactly what tends to make operating on Sundays a tiny bit better in my opinion!

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 anywhere in Kent to 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.

A person phoned us from his home on a road. He explained, "My vehicle (a Denstroude) is not starting up and is producing very bad noises when I flip the ignition." He confessed that he put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then imagined he would resolve the issue by putting additional Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, performed the drain and filled it up again with clean Diesel. He said that he would be sure to tell people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to have it drained promptly.
