Wrong Fuel in Car Sandy Lane - Petrol in Diesel Car Sandy Lane
Our engineer was called out to a filling station when a lady misfueled her Sandy Lane by putting unleaded in her diesel vehicle. She was in an irritated and confused mentality but we immediately eased her nerves by telling her that we could be with her within an hour to perform the necessary work and that the vehicle would shortly be functioning and she'd be on the road again. As we had stated she was exactly that, but not before saying: "Your company is incredibly service driven, I'm extremely pleased my vehicle is okay," and that she would endorse us to everyone.
Signs of incorrect fuel
Signs of wrong fuel are quite evident, but in most instances you might not be able to observe all of them. Nonetheless, if your engine starts sputtering or if you start seeing a lot of smoke emerging from the exhaust, or your vehicle stops and shows no power at all even though you push the accelerator harder and harder, then it is obvious that you have put the wrong fuel in your vehicle.
All that said, you will most likely be more cautious in future, now that you have experienced putting the wrong fuel in your vehicle. 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
- Not concentrating - being on autopilot
- You're using a vehicle you are not used to driving, borrowed or hired
Presence of water in fuel is another problem
You should keep in mind that the contamination of fuel by water is another problem that can cause the same signs stated above. You should be aware that any fuel which is contaminated with water, regardless of whether your car uses diesel or petrol , will always fail the engine leading to an untimely stop.
The running of the engine is usually enhanced using a diesel system additive referred to as AdBlue. It is commonly administered wrongly, as such, it is significant that it is done by someone who knows how to use it. Or else, it would cause troubles and problems to your vehicle. To avoid any troubles, AdBlue should be contained in a separate tank. When someone who is inexperienced in administering AdBlue correctly, it is common that they miss the mark.
Just like when a vehicle has incorrect fuel, AdBlue also causes the vehicle not to move smoothly and eventually cause the car to stop. The good thing is that we are here to help. Our mobile technicians are used to coping with a wide range of vehicular issues, not only water contamination or having the incorrect fuel in the car but this type of issue too.
We have the required resources and skills
Many people get tempted to handle the issue on their own or seek the assistance of a good friend who they think is highly trained with engines with the hope of saving the repair fee. But you are wrong since the above problems are quite complicated and should just be solved by someone who is properly trained so as to avoid mishaps such as fire caused by wrong handling of fuel. Our technical staff are trained and have a great experience in working with such issues in all kinds of vehicle.

Proper disposal of contaminated fuel is not just part of the wrong fuel service but also a service that we offer to businesses and private individuals separately. All we ask from our customers who request us to drain, store or get rid of the contaminated oil is that they give us complete access to the containers and whether they are fixed storage containers, mobile bowsers or a combination of tanks, they can trust us to do it in a proper and environmentally friendly way.

How long does a fuel drain take
You don't have to worry about waiting for long until the technician is done. We usually target around 30 minutes. After that, you will be back on the road.
So, after giving us a call putting the wrong fuel in your vehicle won't have to be the nightmare you originally thought it was going to be.

Recent Wrong Fuel Drains around Sandy Lane
Some reports:
Wrong Fuel in Car Sandy Lane - Petrol in Diesel Car Sandy Lane
It was around 9 pm on a Saturday and though we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and I were seated there talking over the recent sports, prepared for the 8th call that day to come in. Eventually we had the phone call from a woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage and filled petrol in a diesel Sandy Lane rental car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was quite irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply can't believe I've wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to worry, and that these things regrettably happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a secure spot and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles away from where we were, we could find the customer without delay. The wrong fuel was removed and she was able to return to the motel she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got really wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive away contented and less concerned. Another misfuel correction well done in my opinion!

It truly was the graveyard shift. It was roughly dawn and noone was about. It had become fairly quiet so far, and Brian and I were relaxing looking at a number of old newspapers. This was a rare calm moment. Actually it was indeed so relaxing that when my mobile rang it made me jump! The voice on the other end explained: "I've only just finished my evening shift and incredibly filled petrol in my Sandy Lane". I told him to tell us exactly where the car was and we headed out, ending up not as much as 30 minutes later. The fuel was extracted from the motor and he said many thanks for showing up so quickly. While we were returning to the depot we spotted two young women at the edge of the road who seemed to have a puncture. Accordingly we pulled over to help them change it, much to their delight.

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.
