Wrong Fuel in Car Meopham Station - Petrol in Diesel Car Meopham Station

Ahhh, that was a good night's sleep! 7:00 on a rainy Saturday and we were off to help an old woman after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel Meopham Station. She told us that she had left the filling station forecourt and was pulled up in a rural road on the way to visit her family. I plugged her location into the Satnav and got there within 60 minutes. I arrived at the vehicle and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing the drain she explained, "I have been becoming fairly forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle using diesel because I had just bought it a week back right after my previous car, which I'd had for over thirty years, finally broke down". I completed the drain and she presented me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a pleasant lady!

On arrival of the technician at your car

The first task that our mechanic will do once he arrives at your place is to confirm if the problem you reported via our customer service 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 case, you won’t be charged the quoted price but an updated amount.

Our technician will be bringing the necessary tools and fresh fuel with him so if he discovers that it is actually the problem of wrong fuel, he will fix it on the spot. He will immediately remove mixed fuel and then replace it with fresh fuel, and we won’t ask you for extra on the fresh fuel. We also accept all major debit and credit cards as we know your situation and hence there's no need to be scared if you are out of cash.

Contamination with AdBlue or Water

If your fuel system has water in it, irregularities of behavior will start to be shown by your engine. Symptoms mentioned above for an engine with the wrong fuel can also be observed if the fuel system has water in it. This includes low power, lots of smoke appearing out of the exhaust, irregularities on how the vehicle runs and even failing to run at all. This case of water contamination can extend its damage to the fuel filters.

Putting AdBlue in the fuel tank can also make your vehicle to exhibit similar symptoms. This additive which is used to purify the emissions of your engine should just be added through its own separate tank and automatic dosing system inbuilt into the car rather than straight into a fuel tank of a diesel engine. If added manually, this should be done by somebody who knows the right place to put it.

In both of the cases above, we can offer the same fuel system draining, flushing and refilling service as we do if you put the incorrect fuel in your vehicle. It does not matter what the cause is, we can get you back on your way. As we deal with your fuel issue, we can also replace water damaged fuel filters.

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 woman with her youngsters in her diesel Meopham Station had put £20 of petrol at the Shell petrol station. She called us weeping and extremely upset as she had never wrong fueled previously and did not know what would happen to her car because of it. We assured her that everything would be fine and that she would be back in action soon. When we arrived on scene she was visible distressed but while our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she saw that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She soon brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I really can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Specifically with the children in the back."
