Wrong Fuel in Car Hade Edge - Petrol in Diesel Car Hade Edge

This was what we call an unsociable hour to be up. It was roughly sunrise and almost noone was about. It had been quite quiet thus far, and John and I were loafing looking through several old magazines. That was an unusual calm hour. It was indeed that peaceful that the moment my mobile inevitably rang I leaped with surprise! The customer on the phone told me: "I have finished my night shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in my Hade Edge in error". I instructed him to tell us exactly where the car was and we hit the road, reaching him no more than an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car. He thanked us profusely for coming so fast. While we were coming back to base we spotted two young women on the side of the highway who seemed to have a puncture. Accordingly we pulled over to help them change it, to their delight.

Signs of wrong fuel

The signs of incorrect fuel are quite evident, but in most situations you might not be able to notice all of them. In case your engine starts sputtering, or if you start seeing a lot of smoke coming out of the exhaust, or if your car 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 wrong fuel in your car.

That experience of refilling your tank with the incorrect fuel would teach a harsh lesson to be cautious in the future. You'll want to look back at what are the possible causes of why it happened.

• Being in a rush or flustered
• You're in autopilot mode and not checking
• Vehicle you are using is borrowed, you're not familiar with it

Aside from incorrect fuel in your vehicle, water contamination can also cause your vehicle to run badly before coming to a halt, regardless of the type of gas you use as a propellant. This means that if you encounter any of the earlier mentioned signs, they could also be a result of either of the two.

Diesel engines (modern ones) these days make use of AdBlue to reduce nitrous pollution in the exhaust fumes. Having the correct ratio of AdBlue to fuel is important, hence why a separate tank for the AdBlue. If someone directly added this to your tank not knowing the right tank to put it in, your engine will be in big trouble since it is is incorrect to mix it with fuel. Again, the symptoms are very like those stated above, and we can put things right for you. Just remember what we say to you, "we will always be around you and ready to help in your engine trouble, just ask for assistance and we'll be there".

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 West Yorkshire 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.
