Wrong Fuel in Car Ivychurch - Petrol in Diesel Car Ivychurch

Just had a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a gloomy Bank Holiday Monday and we were off to assist an older lovely lady who had put petrol in her diesel Ivychurch. I'd been told she had left the petrol station forecourt and was broken down in a rural road along the way to visit her family. I got the location punched into the TomTom and got there within 60 minutes. I reached the car and drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing the work she said to me, "I am getting fairly forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle needing diesel because I had only got it a short while ago because my other one, which I had for about twenty years, finally gave up the ghost". I finished the job and she gifted me a peppermint and said thank you. Such a pleasant lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car Ivychurch - Petrol in Diesel Car Ivychurch

A lady had come to a halt on a road, just after having put petrol in her diesel car. She was sobbing and fairly agitated as she had put £40 of petrol in her diesel car. As she contacted us we tried to calm her as well as we could, encouraging her that all would be ok. By the time we got to her she was no longer disrupted and was rather intrigued in watching our fuel drainer do the fuel drain on her Ivychurch. Afterwards she said: "My car is like my child, I only just purchased it and so it honestly horrified me that I had put such a lot of wrong fuel in it. I'm so happy that it was so easily repairable."

On arrival of the mechanic at your car

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 care is correct or not - misfuelling. If it is not, he won’t render any service linked to the wrong fuel in the car, and in that situation, you won’t be charged the quoted price but an updated amount.

Our technician will be carrying the necessary equipment and fresh fuel with him so if he learns that it is actually the issue of wrong fuel, he will fix it on the spot. He will empty out the mixed fuel, flush the fuel system, and replenish the tank with fresh fuel priced the same as that charged in the gasoline station. You also do not have to worry if you don't have enough money with you, we understand your situation and we will accept any major debit or credit card.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

Other than wrong fuel, water can also cause similar signs, such as the production of a lot of smoke, a rough running of the engine, indications of no power and stalling. Hence you must also suspect it. But unlike wrong fuel, water can cause extra damage, such as irreparable damage to the fuel filters.

AdBlue if added improperly it can also display the same symptoms in your car. AdBlue is a cleaner that helps the engine of your vehicle to be more eco-friendly. However, if this is added straight away to your fuel tank, it will most likely to cause more trouble than good. That's precisely why it should have a separate tank and the dosing should be automated. If this is added into the fuel tank by someone who knows nothing of AdBlue, the result would be bad for the engine.

But you don't need to fret since we can fix both issues for you by applying the same procedure used in solving the matter of wrong fuel. So, if your issue is incorrect fuel, water contaminated fuel, broken fuel filters or AdBlue into the wrong tank, don’t worry, we can fix it for you thus enabling you to carry on with your journey.

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.
