Wrong Fuel in Car Sawood - Petrol in Diesel Car Sawood
We've attended a great number of call-outs on cars or trucks run with the wrong fuel. Last week there was a young lady with her Sawood: "I incredibly filled petrol in my diesel car and got stuck in the road. Fuel Fixer Ltd sent one of your technicians to me in 30 minutes and the car was running once more right away. You had me up and running once more inside 60 minutes. Thank you so much."
Indicators of wrong fuel
After refueling your tank, your car may begin experiencing some signs but you might not be able to grasp them all. However, if your engine begins sputtering or if you start seeing lots of smoke coming out of the exhaust, or your car stops and shows no power at all even if you push the accelerator harder and harder, then it is obvious that you have put the wrong fuel in your car.
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 to do
- Out of concentration since you are on autopilot
- You are using a car you are not used to driving, borrowed or hired
Presence of water in fuel is yet another problem
A sputtering engine with very low power and too much smoke from the exhaust with an eventual stop are also indicators of water contamination. It will make your car behave abnormally and eventually stops regardless of whether it runs on diesel or petrol thus you should also suspect it if you find yourself in a situation of doubt.

The amount of AdBlue added to your vehicle should be of correct ratio in order to avoid further problem. It's for this reason, AdBlue has a separate tank mounted somewhere. If someone directly added this to your tank not knowing the correct tank to put it in, your engine will be in big trouble as it's is wrong to mix it with fuel. Again, the symptoms are very like those described above, and we can put things right for you.
