Wrong Fuel in Car Otham - Petrol in Diesel Car Otham

A young adult who had only passed his driving test had misfueled his Otham by getting unleaded in his diesel vehicle at the station. He said, "This is only the second occasion I have put fuel in my vehicle since I purchased it and I have no idea of how to handle it." He was also anxious since his step father had only just paid for the car. He came across us on the web and so called us right away, afraid about what he should do. Our person on the call explained to him that we would be there within forty five minutes and to not start his car while waiting. We carried out the fuel drain on his vehicle and he said how impressed he was that it was completed so speedily and without consequence at all.

Once we reach your site

Once our skilled technician arrives at your location he will inspect your vehicle to confirm if it is truly the case of incorrect fuel in the car. And if it isn't he will not need to do the drain and will just charge you a nominal fee.

Assuming it is the wrong fuel in your vehicle as usually is the case, our mechanics have all the tools on board and know-how to drain your vehicle's fuel system, flush it out and replenish it with nice clean fuel of the correct type. We don’t charge crazy prices for the fresh fuel either, we just charge the current pump prices. And when it's time to pay, we can accept all major debit and credit cards, as we understand you may not have enough cash and have probably stopped a long way from the closest cash machine.

AdBlue and Water Contamination

You should also take note of the fact that incorrect fuel is not the only issue which makes the engine run in an abnormal manner, but often the presence of water in the fuel can also make your vehicle produce a lot of smoke, stop, lack power, or run irregularly. But unlike wrong fuel, water can cause extra damage, such as irreparable damage to the fuel filters.

You can also notice similar symptoms if AdBlue is added int the diesel tank. This additive which is utilized to purify the emissions of your engine should only be added through its own separate tank and automatic dosing system inbuilt into the car rather than directly into a fuel tank of a diesel engine. If this is added into the fuel tank by somebody who has no knowledge of AdBlue, the result would be bad for the engine.

But you can relax if you experience any of the above problems since we can flush the system just like in the case of wrong fuel. We are always there to fix your car and get you back on the road no matter if it is a problem of the wrong fuel, fuel contaminated with water, or even AdBlue contamination.

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.
