Wrong Fuel in Car Stick Hill - Petrol in Diesel Car Stick Hill

Just had a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a warm Sunday and I was en route to assist an elder woman who put petrol in her diesel Stick Hill. She informed us that she drove away from the filling station forecourt and pulled up in a rural road on route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I punched her location in the Satnav and arrived inside an hour. I arrived at the car and removed the wrong fuel out of the car. While I was doing the work she said, "I am becoming quite forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel seeing that I had only just got it a couple of days back when my former one, which I had used for more than thirty years, eventually broke down". I got the job completed and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks. What a precious woman!

On arrival of the technician at your location

Once the technician is with you and has access to your vehicle, his first task is to confirm whether the problem of your vehicle is due to incorrect fuel or not. If the finding is negative, no services will be carried out on fixing the suspected incorrect fuel in a vehicle. You won't have to pay for the quoted services, rather, a call out charge will be asked of you.

The above signs are usually an indication of incorrect fuel in a vehicle and if we discover that yours is the same issue, we will fix it quickly since our mechanics bring the required equipment and fresh fuel with them. You should hire us because of these three reasons. The first reason is that we have the abilities to empty out the wrong fuel and change it out with the right fuel. Another reason is that we charge the same price for fresh fuel as that priced in a petrol station. And the third reason is that we accept all types of payment, hence if you don’t have ample cash with you, we will take payments via any major credit or debit card.

Other Services

We also give other services aside from fixing the problem of wrong fuel

We also offer other services to our customers after handling the matter of wrong fuel, such as disposal of contaminated fuel. Such contaminated fuels have to be disposed of by a professional and not by just anyone since they can degrade the surroundings and even pollute local water supplies. We are professional in this industry too as we are certified by Environment agency and we have the right equipment to do this work, both legally and safely.

Getting rid of the contaminated fuel is also a service of its own which we deliver to private and commercial customers. If you are a customer looking for this service, all you have to do is give us access to the fixed, mobile storage tank, or other container where it is stored, and be guaranteed that we will empty them out and then eliminate the contaminated fuel in accordance with the security regulations in place.

AdBlue and Water Contamination

There are other causes of engine problems aside from filling your car with the wrong fuel. Fuel contaminated with water will also cause similar signs of lack of power, irregular running, a lot of smoke and stalling. Water is also likely to cause irreparable damage to fuel filters.

Putting AdBlue in the fuel tank can also make your vehicle to display similar signs. AdBlue is a cleaner that helps the engine of your vehicle to be more eco-friendly. Nonetheless, if this is added directly to your fuel tank, it will most likely to cause more harm than good. That's the reason why it should have a separate tank and the dosing should be automated. If added manually, this should be carried out by someone who knows the right place to put it.

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. By using the same procedure 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. Besides that, if the damage has extended to your fuel filters, we can replace them on the spot. You don't have to call for another service provider to do that.

We will arrive at your location soon. But if a few minutes is still too long for you to wait, you may redirect your attention through searching other services that we provide. For sure we'll reach you imminently. Once the technician has started his work, he'll only need about 30 minutes to get the job done and get you back on the road.

Wrong fuel in the tank may perhaps lead to other troubles such as air getting into the fuel system or even a flat battery. But you also don’t have to worry since we also have the equipment and abilities to use in sorting them out so as to enable you to continue with your journey.

We understand how difficult it is to get over moments like this but we are grateful you contacted us. Our help extended to you means much to us. Not just can we help get you back on the road, we hopefully helped you get back your peace of mind too.

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.
