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

It was just before six pm on a Friday and even though we were guaranteed a dry day, it had not ceased raining! Paul and I were resting commenting on the weekend's rugby rankings, waiting around for the 8th call of the day to arrive. Eventually we received a call from a woman on a business trip who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Worms Hill rental. The unfortunate lady was very affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I cannot believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and that things like this regrettably happen. She managed to get the car to a safe position and, because it was only a few minutes from where we were, we were able to get to the customer rather quickly. The bad fuel was removed and she could once again go back to the motel she was staying at. Although we got extremely wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive home calm and much less worried. Another fuel drain done well in my opinion!

Contamination with AdBlue or Water

Apart from wrong fuel, water can also cause similar signs, such as the production of a lot of smoke, a rough running of the engine, signs of no power and stalling. Hence you should also suspect it. But water can do a lot of damage which is irreparable, like damaging the fuel filter which doesn't necessarily happen in the event of wrong fuel.

AdBlue is a solution which is utilized get rid of toxic gases from the engine's exhaust, and if it is put in the diesel tank then it can also cause exactly the same issues. Using AdBlue without any knowledge of how it should be refilled can make your car behave abnormally. For correct operation of it, AdBlue should be added through its own separate tank and dosing system rather than added to the fuel tank.

In these situations, we can give the services of draining the fuel, flushing the engine and refilling with clean fuel, just like in the case of filling your tank with the incorrect fuel. So, regardless of what the cause we can get you 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.

• 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.
