Wrong Fuel in Car Briestfield - Petrol in Diesel Car Briestfield
A customer with her kids in her diesel Briestfield had filled her car with £45 of petrol at the Co Op petrol station. She called us crying and genuinely worried as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel previously and did not know what would happen to her vehicle because of it. We assured her that the car would be okay and that she would be back ready to go quickly. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but while our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she saw that something could be done and her car wasn't ruined. She soon cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I just can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Especially with the kids in the back."
What to consider if you have put wrong fuel in car
Signs of wrong fuel are quite evident, but in most cases you might not be able to observe all of them. In the event your engine starts sputtering, or if you start seeing lots of smoke coming out of the exhaust, or if your vehicle starts losing power no matter how much you press the accelerator, or if your vehicle comes to a halt, then you can suspect that you have put the incorrect fuel in your vehicle.

That experience of refilling your tank with the incorrect fuel would teach a harsh lesson to be cautious in the future. You may come back to think what caused the wrong fuel problem in the first place.
- You are in a hurry and confused on what precisely to do
- You're in autopilot mode and not checking
- Vehicle you are utilizing is borrowed, you're not familiar with it
As pointed out earlier, there are other issues that could be the cause of your car issues aside from wrong fuel. Water contamination is one of them, which causes similar bad vehicle performance, usually ending in your car breaking down. Thus, if your car starts showing the aforementioned signs, you should not only suspect wrong fuel but also water contamination.
The running of the engine is generally improved using a diesel system additive called AdBlue. It is typically administered incorrectly, as such, it is significant that it is done by somebody who knows how to utilize it. Or else, it would cause issues and problems to your car. To avoid any troubles, AdBlue should be contained in a separate tank. The possibility of misusing AdBlue is quite high especially if done by somebody with no knowledge in this.
Such a problem is also indicated by the vehicle not running smoothly hence reduced power and an eventual stoppage. The great thing is that we are here to help. Our mobile technicians are used to dealing with a wide range of vehicle issues, not only water contamination or having the wrong fuel in the vehicle but this kind of problem too.
Diesel or petrol being extremely flammable should be handled by an expert with the proper tools. Fuel for instance, can ignite effortlessly, turning a small issue into a catastrophic one. Whenever you have a vehicle issue that involves fuel or other flammable materials, we advise you talk to an expert as your first point of action, as opposed to dealing with it yourself or involving a friend.

Ahhh, that was a good night's sleep! It was 7:00 am on a sunny Wednesday and we were off to assist an old lady who put petrol in her diesel Briestfield. I'd been informed she had driven away from the filling station and was pulled up in a rural lane on route to see her godchildren. I got her location plugged in the Satnav and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I reached the stricken lady and removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she told me, "I'm becoming fairly absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the car needing diesel since I'd just got it a week back when my former car, which I'd had for more than 30 years, eventually died on me". I finished the job and she presented me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. What a precious woman!
