Wrong Fuel in Car Morehall - Petrol in Diesel Car Morehall

It was just before 7 pm on a Wednesday and though we were assured a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and me were relaxing there discussing the sports, at the ready for the 8th telephone call for the day to come in. Finally we received the phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling garage and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Morehall rental car by mistake. She was quite troubled it seemed, crying "I simply cannot believe I have destroyed the car! I am just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a protected position and, seeing that it was only a few minutes off from the office, we were able to get to the lady almost instantly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away contented and a lot less concerned. One more misfuel correction well done in my mind!

After arrival

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

Our technician will be carrying the required tools and fresh fuel with him so if he finds out that it is really the issue of wrong fuel, he will fix it on the spot. He will drain out the mixed fuel, flush the fuel system, and then replenish the tank with fresh fuel priced the same as that charged in the petrol station. We are aware that you might not be having enough cash with you, but you don’t have to worry since we accept any common credit or debit card thus you can use them to pay.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

You should know that incorrect fuel is not the only issue which can make your engine run abnormally. The presence of water in fuel is another problem which can make your vehicle produce lots of smoke, run irregularly, stop or show signs of no power. 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.

You can also observe the same signs if AdBlue is added int the diesel tank. This additive which is used to purify the emissions of your engine should just 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 added manually, this should be done by somebody who knows the correct place to put it.

But you do not have to fret since we can fix both problems for you by applying similar procedure used in solving the issue of wrong fuel. So, if your problem is wrong fuel, water contaminated fuel, broken fuel filters or AdBlue into the wrong tank, don’t worry, we can fix it for you thus allowing you to carry on 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:

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.
