Wrong Fuel in Car Mersham - Petrol in Diesel Car Mersham

We did a wrong fuel retrieval exercise near a spectacular property not so long ago. "I had put the wrong fuel in my diesel car and was able to nearly arrive at home when my car stopped." Our technician went out, despite the fact that it was fairly late at night, and completed a full fuel drain and purge on the Mersham to everyone's satisfaction.

Upon arrival

Upon arrival, our skilled technician will first inspect your car to guarantee that it is the issue of wrong fuel in the car. And if it is not, he won't drain it but will only charge you a nominal amount.

If our technician learns that it is indeed the issue of wrong fuel, he will start solving it immediately since he will have fresh fuel as well as the essential tools with him. He will right away remove mixed fuel and then change it with fresh fuel, and we won’t ask you for extra on the fresh fuel. We are aware that you might not be having enough money with you, but you don’t need to worry since we accept any common debit or credit card thus you can use them to pay.

Other Services

You should also learn that besides dealing with your car with wrong fuel, we offer other services linked to fuel. To name one is getting rid of the contaminated fuel the right and legal way. Getting rid of this contaminated fuel is not permitted to anyone unless you are authorized to do so. If these fuels are thrown just anywhere, they could degrade the environment and possibly contaminate the local water supply. Not only we are certified by the Environment Agency, we also have the correct devices for discarding contaminated fuel.

Getting rid of the contaminated fuel is also a service of its own which we deliver to private and commercial clients. If you have a private company and in need of our service, we just need full access to your tank, either fixed or mobile or other kinds of container. We will then do the rest of the work in accordance to the environmental law specified.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

There are other factors that cause engine problems aside from filling your vehicle with the wrong fuel. The existence of water in your fuel also makes your car to show similar signs, which include: lack of power, trouble running, production of excess smoke and even stalling. This is a serious issue that can completely deteriorate the fuel filters.

A diesel-powered car may also show such signs when someone puts AdBlue directly into the vehicle’s fuel tank. This can be done so through adding it to its own separate tank and dosing system which is inbuilt into the vehicle.

But don’t fret as regardless of whether it is an issue of contaminated fuel due to water or AdBlue, we are still in a position to help you. Through using the same process of draining and flushing the fuel system as used in solving the problem of wrong fuel in the car, we can enable you to get back on the road. Apart from that, if the damage has extended to your fuel filters, we can change them out on the spot. You don't need to call for another service provider to do that.

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 fairly concerned motorist phoned us from the Shell petrol station to tell us that he put unleaded into his diesel Mersham; he wasn't entirely sure how he'd done it. We said to him it was not a problem and rapidly had our specialist with him to clear the incorrect fuel from his vehicle. Having removed the contaminated fuel, he was subsequently back behind the wheel. He told us; "I can't believe I filled my car with the wrong fuel. And the chap who appeared to do the fuel drain was extremely pleasant - he did not make me feel like an idiot."
