Wrong Fuel in Car Steeton - Petrol in Diesel Car Steeton

A lady with her little ones in her diesel Steeton had filled her car with £50 of petrol at the Texaco service station. She contacted us crying and genuinely upset as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel previously and did not know what could happen to her vehicle in doing so. We reassured her that all should be fine and that she would be up and running very quickly. When we arrived on scene she was visible distressed but while our technician began work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she recognised that help was at hand and her car wasn't ruined. She soon enough brightened up and was up and running saying, "I just can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my car! Specifically with the little ones in the back."

Signs of the Problem and its Causes

Now that you have personally experienced what it's like to have the wrong fuel in your vehicle, you may be be careful next time. And to completely understand the signs of the problem here's a list for reference:

• The engine won't run and it's spluttering
• The exhaust releases lots of smoke
• Engine appears powerless now matter how hard you push the accelerator
• The vehicle won't work anymore

---

That experience of refilling your tank with the wrong fuel would teach a harsh lesson to be very careful in the future. 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
• Out of concentration because you are on autopilot
• Vehicle you are utilizing is borrowed, you are not familiar with it

You should also be aware that incorrect fuel is not the only problem that can cause your vehicle to show the above indications. The presence of water in fuel is another issue which can make your car not work efficiently and eventually stop, no matter the type of fuel utilized. This implies that if you encounter any of the earlier mentioned signs, they could also be a result of either of the two.

A lot of modern diesel engines use AdBlue, a system that decreases the air pollution of the engine. The correct amount of AdBlue to be added in the fuel system is very important. It's usually mounted on a separate tank to avoid directly mixing to your fuel tank. If someone directly added this to your tank not knowing the proper tank to put it in, your engine will be in big trouble since it is is incorrect to mix it with fuel. Again, the signs are very like those described above, and we can put things right for you. Here's our message to you, "whatever happens to your engine, we'll always be your helping hand at any time of the day, anywhere you are".

Flammable materials need not just adequate expertise, but also a variety of relevant equipment to manage them properly. Otherwise, the fuel may ignite and what initially was easy to contain may turn into a catastrophe. It is therefore recommended you involve a professional whenever you are working with fuel related problems, although carrying it out by yourself or involving a friend may be cheaper.

Besides, our technicians are situated throughout the area, and they have all the skill sets and knowledge, and will solve the problem for you quickly and at a reasonable price.

They say cheap is expensive. Wanting to handle the issue yourself or asking for a favour from a friend may sound cheap but may also result in you losing the vehicle in the event of fire. Bear in mind, when you contact us to deal with your fuel trouble, you are still needed to purchase clean fuel and cover the transportation costs. Hire us and be assured of a risk-free and less expensive procedure. We charge you favourably, carry clean fuel with us to re-fill your tank and charge the fuel at the current pump prices. Moreover, we will help you get rid of the contaminated fuel.

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.
