Wrong Fuel in Car Lane End - Petrol in Diesel Car Lane End

This was the graveyard shift. It was about sunrise and nobody was around. It had been rather quiet until now, and me and John were loafing about reading a couple of old papers. That was a rare calm hour. Actually it was in fact that peaceful that the instant the phone eventually rang I leaped! The motorist stated: "I have just finished my overnight shift and foolishly poured petrol in my diesel Lane End". I asked him to let us know exactly where the car was located and we set off, reaching him not as much as half an hour later. The fuel was removed from the engine and he thanked us for coming so rapidly. While we were heading back home we spotted two girls on the side of the highway who looked like they had a flat. Obviously we got out to change it, much to their delight.

And if he discovers that it is not the issue of incorrect fuel in the vehicle, he won’t drain it unnecessarily, and you will only be charged an updated amount which is not equal to the cost of wrong fuel in a car.

Signs of car irregularities mentioned above are an indication that your vehicle has been filled with wrong fuel. Since we bring the necessary equipment and fresh fuel, we can fix that issue immediately wherever you are. There are three major reasons why you should pick us. First and foremost, our teams are experienced in handling your situation and can get you back on the road quickly.

Other Services

Did you Know

You might also want to know if we give other services aside from solving the problem of incorrect fuel.

After our technician has emptied a few fuel systems throughout the day, they will have a tank full of contaminated fuel they have to dispose of. Nowadays, such fuel should be discarded properly since pouring it out might pollute the surroundings and the local water supply. We are Environmental Agency Certified and have the necessary know-how and devices to get rid of contaminated fuel.

It is also a service that we offer separately to business and private clients at a fee. We have the ability to drain many types of containers including fixed and mobile tanks so long as we can get to where they are found. Rest assured that we will empty out the contaminated fuel and get rid of it safely to the right regulations.

Contamination with AdBlue or Water

Aside from wrong fuel, water can also cause similar symptoms, such as the production of a lot of smoke, a rough running of the engine, indications of no power and stalling. Hence you must also suspect it. But unlike wrong fuel, water can cause more damage, such as permanent damage to the fuel filters.

Another thing which can cause same signs is putting AdBlue directly into the fuel tank. AdBlue contamination can also occur if it is used by somebody who has no know-how on how or where it should be added. Hence, it should just be used by someone who is aware that it should be added to its own tank instead of being added directly to the fuel.

But you don't need to worry since we can fix both issues for you by applying the same procedure utilized in solving the problem of wrong fuel. So, if your issue is wrong fuel, water contaminated fuel, damaged fuel filters or AdBlue into the incorrect tank, don’t worry, we can fix it for you thus allowing you to continue with your journey.

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:

    • 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.
