Wrong Fuel in Car Yewtree Cross - Petrol in Diesel Car Yewtree Cross

I had enjoyed a terrific afternoon fishing on my off day and felt delighted the next working day as I set off to aid a new family on holiday. They had broken down after inserting petrol into their Yewtree Cross, and were roughly an hour's travel away. I got there at their location and smirked to myself as I listened to the woman chastising her hubby for actually being so silly. "Precisely how could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this takes place on a regular basis and that it's absolutely nothing to get worried about, however he all the same got his ear bent. I felt sorry for the boy. Anyway, I drained the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the right fuel. Watching as they drove off I waved hasta la vista and thought about what my wife would do to me if perhaps I made the very same mistake... I would personally never ever live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car Yewtree Cross - Petrol in Diesel Car Yewtree Cross

A woman with a full car of little ones in her diesel Yewtree Cross had put £40 of petrol at the station. She called us sobbing and extremely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and did not know what could happen to her car because of it. We reassured her that the car would be okay and that she would be back in action in no time at all. When we arrived she was still distressed but as our technician got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she noticed that something could be done and her car wasn't ruined. She quickly brightened up and was up and running saying, "I just can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Specifically with the youngsters on board."

After arrival

Once our experienced technician arrives at your location he will inspect your vehicle to confirm if it is really the case of incorrect fuel in the car. And if it isn't he will not need to do the drain and will only ask you for a minimal cost.

Signs of car problems mentioned above are an indication that your vehicle has been pumped with wrong fuel. Since we bring the needed tools and fresh fuel, we can fix that issue right away wherever you are. You should hire us because of these three reasons. First of all, our teams are competent in managing your situation and can get you back on the road very quickly. One other reason is our prices for the fuel replacement is the same as the current price in your nearby petrol station. The last reason is the method of payment. We accept other kinds of payment like debit or credit cards if in case you don't have money with you.

Contamination with AdBlue or Water

You should also pay attention to the fact that incorrect fuel is not the only problem which makes the engine run in an abnormal manner, but sometimes the presence of water in the fuel can also make your car produce too much smoke, stop, lack power, or run irregularly. But water can do a lot of damage which is irreparable, such as damaging the fuel filter which doesn't necessarily happen in the event of wrong fuel.

The same set of symptoms may also be caused by somebody trying to put AdBlue directly into the fuel tank of a diesel engine. This can be done so through adding it to its own separate tank and dosing system which is inbuilt into the car.

In both of the cases above, we can offer the same fuel system draining, flushing and refilling service as we do if you put the incorrect fuel in your car. Regardless of what caused you to get stranded, we can help you to get back on the road. As we deal with your fuel trouble, 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.

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 and 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.
