Wrong Fuel in Car Shackleton - Petrol in Diesel Car Shackleton

It must be horrible being stranded in a automobile filled with the wrong fuel in the middle of the street. We had a customer who filled her car with the incorrect fuel (Shackleton) encountered literally this nightmare: "You may already know that I erroneously put petrol in my diesel car . I was so troubled about it that I was actually in tears. Nonetheless I needn't have worried simply because you were brilliant in fixing it."

You may be doubting the presence of incorrect fuel in your car, but you are unsure. Some customers have in the past reported the issue of wrong fuel only to know later that it was a different problem. For you to be sure that your car is experiencing problems due to incorrect fuel, we have put together some of the typical signs for you. If you hear your engine spluttering and not running efficiently, or observe a lot of smoke from your exhaust causing no power to the car and hence forcing the vehicle to a stop, then that is clear sign of burning the incorrect fuel.

All that said, you will most likely be more cautious in future, now that you have experienced putting the wrong fuel in your car. 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 exactly to do
• Out of concentration since you are on autopilot
• Being in a car or truck you aren't used to - borrowing or hiring a vehicle

Contamination of fuel by water also results in the above signs.

A sputtering engine with low power and too much smoke from the exhaust with an eventual stop are also signs of water contamination. It does not matter whether your car runs on diesel or petrol, water can also cause it to work roughly and ultimately stop. So you should also pay attention to it.

Diesel engines (modern ones) these days use AdBlue to reduce nitrous contaminants in the exhaust fumes. Having the right ratio of AdBlue to fuel is critical, hence why a separate tank for the AdBlue. If somebody isn't mindful of this and tries to add it directly into the tank, it will create problems. The symptoms you will notice is just like what were cited above but don't worry we get it fixed. So the message is, ?if your engine splutters, smokes and stops, we can definitely help, and get you going again, whatever the cause?.

We possess the right equipment and expertise

Some people get tempted to deal with the problem on their own or seek the assistance of a good friend who they believe is trained with engines with the hope of saving the repair charge. What they forget is that cheap is pricey and using an untrained person to try solve such a complicated matter like flammable material may result in accidents such as an inferno which may cause huge losses including burning down of the car. Our technical staff are well trained and have a vast experience in working with such issues in all kinds of vehicle.

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.

A woman had broken down on a road, just after having put the wrong fuel in her car. She was in tears and truly distressed as she had put £40 of petrol in her diesel car. As she phoned us we made an effort to relax her as best we could, encouraging her that everything would be alright. By the time we reached her she was not distressed any more and was very interested in observing our fuel drainer do the fuel drain on her Shackleton. Later on she said: "My car is akin to my baby, I recently bought it and thus it especially worried me that I had put such a large amount of wrong fuel in it. I'm really gratified that it was easily repairable."
