Wrong Fuel in Car Ferrybridge - Petrol in Diesel Car Ferrybridge
A young lady working nearby phoned us shortly after she managed to get her misfueled vehicle to work. She had filled unleaded in her diesel Ferrybridge and, like countless before her, imagined that she could just fill the vehicle with diesel and it would be fine. The car was spluttering and then it died when she reached the the front of her office. We soon went to work on the fuel drain after she called and had it repaired in one hour while she was working. She came outside soon after and thanked us stating, "I'm very pleased you fixed my vehicle."

That experience of filling up your tank with the incorrect fuel would teach a harsh lesson to be careful in the future. From now on, consider those common causes of putting the wrong fuel in your vehicle:
- You are in a circumstance where you are confused while in a hurry
- Out of concentration because you are on autopilot
- Car you are using is borrowed, you're not familiar with it
Presence of water in fuel is yet another problem
A sputtering engine with low power and a lot of smoke from the exhaust with an eventual stop are also indicators of water contamination. It does not matter whether your car runs on diesel or petrol, water can also cause it to run roughly and ultimately stop. So you should also know about it.
A lot of modern diesel engines make use of AdBlue, a system that cuts down the pollution of the engine. The amount of AdBlue added to your vehicle should be of appropriate ratio to avoid further problem. It's for this reason, AdBlue has a separate tank mounted somewhere. If someone isn't aware of this and tries to add it straight into the tank, it will cause problems. The symptoms you will observe is just like what were cited above but don't worry we get it fixed. So the message is, ?if your engine splutters, smokes and stops, we can certainly help, and get you going again, whatever the cause?.

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:
- How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:

- A lot of smoke (more than usual)
- Engine coughing or starting to splutter
- Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
