Having said so, if you ever find yourself in a strange car or a car where the autopilot is operating, you should just stay calm. Loaded with information and from experience, you should be able to detect wrong fuel in your vehicle quickly. Detecting the problem won't be difficult anymore even without thoroughly checking your car.
You should also know that wrong fuel is not the only issue that can cause your vehicle to show the above indications. The presence of water in fuel is another issue which can make your vehicle not run smoothly and eventually stop, no matter the type of fuel utilized. Thus, if your car starts showing the aforementioned signs, you should not only suspect incorrect fuel but also water contamination.
AdBlue is a diesel system additive that makes the engine work cleaner. But it can only be used by people who know how to use it appropriately. Otherwise, it may end up causing problems to your vehicle. The wrong usage can, however, be avoided through the use of its own AdBlue tank and filler cap. When someone who is inexperienced in administering AdBlue correctly, it is common that they miss the mark.
The signs of AdBlue contamination also include the vehicle not moving smoothly and eventually stopping. Great news is we are at all times willing to help. Our mobile technicians are used to handling a great deal of car problems, not only water contamination or having the wrong fuel in the vehicle but this type of issue too.
When handling flammable materials, you would require not only the right expertise but also the right tools. Fuel for example, can ignite easily, turning a small problem into a catastrophic one. You can deal with the problem yourself or hire a friend to do it so as to save some money, but you are advised to hire a professional so as to avoid any further fuel related problem.
We are professionals in handling whatever car issues you have. Our technicians are well distributed around the country and on call 24/7, all set to sort out a wide range of problems efficiently and quickly, at a fair and cost-effective price.
It is clear that we are the very best in what we do. One such reason is the reality that we carry fresh fuel that we can put to your tank once we have emptied out the contaminated one, and we charge the same price as that priced in gas station hence you don’t have to be worried about being charged excess. We also have a certification from the Environment Agency since we commonly get rid of contaminated fuel in a safe and legal way, and this will serve to protect you from incurring additional expenses associated with poor disposal of fuel such as fines.
Safe and Legal Disposal
When we render our service of cleaning up your engine due to incorrect fuel, it's already a package that we take care of draining, storage and the procedure of discarding the waste fuel. We also deliver this as a separate service to private individuals or businesses. Whether you have a fixed storage tank, a mobile bowser or a selection of containers filled with contaminated fuel, as long as we can gain access to them, we can drain them. Once the contaminated fuel has been accumulated, we can securely and legally dump it on your behalf.
There are times when you think that you have encountered the issue of incorrect fuel when in reality you have not. In such instances, our technicians will first check your vehicle to make sure that it is not and then update you on any new charges before taking any further action

Wrong Fuel in Car Midgehole - Petrol in Diesel Car Midgehole
Ahhh, that was a great night's sleep! It was 7:30 on a warm Monday and I was off to help an elder lady after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel Midgehole. I'd been advised she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and stranded along a country road on the way to see her family. I punched the location straight into the Satnav and was with her in less than an hour or so. I got to the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. As I was doing it she told me, "I am becoming fairly forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle needing diesel as I'd only purchased it a few days ago when my previous car, which I had for more than 30 years, eventually broke down". I got the job completed and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. What a pleasant woman!
Wrong Fuel Doctor Midgehole - Fuel Rescue Midgehole
This was exactly what is called an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was around sunrise and noone was around. It had become fairly uneventful thus far, and me and Ray were relaxing looking at a few old papers. That was a rare restful hour. It was in fact that quiet that the instant the phone inevitably rang it made me start! The motorist told me: "I've concluded my evening shift and foolishly put petrol in my diesel Midgehole by mistake". We got him to inform us exactly where he was located and we set off, arriving not as much as half an hour later. The wrong fuel was removed from the vehicle and he thanked us for coming out so fast. As we were returning home we spotted two young women on the side of the street who seemed like they had a flat. As a result we pulled up and helped them change it, to their elation.

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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
