A rather concerned customer phoned us from the Total petrol station to inform us that he had put unleaded into his diesel Huddersfield; he wasn't really quite sure how he'd done it. We told him it was not a worry and before long had our engineer out to him to clean the incorrect fuel from his vehicle. Having purged the bad fuel, he was soon enough back on the road. He told us; "I can't believe I put the wrong fuel in my car. And the guy who came to take care of the fuel drain was really excellent - he did not make me seem foolish."

Wrong Fuel in Car Huddersfield - Petrol in Diesel Car Huddersfield
Last friday a young man telephoned us when his Huddersfield stopped working along the street. He had mistakenly put unleaded in his diesel car and had managed to get so far as the road before being forced to stop. It was still in the early hours of the morning and our technical engineer, who resides nearby, reached him in approximately a quarter hour. We managed to take out the wrong fuel and put clean diesel back in the car. "Sincere thanks to you for your prompt response, especially at 3 a.m., I appreciate it."

This was exactly what we call an unsociable time to be on the road. It was around 2:30am and nobody was around. It was fairly uneventful up to now, and Ryan and I were sitting browsing a few old papers. That was an unusual calm moment. It was indeed so peaceful that the instant the telephone finally rang it made me jump! The voice explained: "I've only just completed my night shift and incredibly poured petrol in my Huddersfield". We got him to tell us exactly where the car was and we hit the road, reaching him not as much as half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the engine and he said many thanks for showing up so quickly. While we were coming back home we noticed two girls at the edge of the highway who looked like they had a flat tyre. So we pulled up and helped them change it, much to their delight.

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