Wrong Fuel in Car Undercliffe - Petrol in Diesel Car Undercliffe
Ahhh, that was a good night of sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a bright Monday and I was off to help an older sweetheart who put the wrong fuel in her diesel Undercliffe. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was broken down on a country road en route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got the location punched into the Satnav and got there in less than 60 minutes. I got to the destination and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing the drain she told me, "I have been becoming somewhat forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car using diesel because I'd only acquired it a few days ago after my old car, which I owned for in excess of twenty five years, finally died". I completed the job and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. Such a delightful woman!
Signs of incorrect fuel
The signs of wrong fuel are evident, but in most cases you might not be able to notice all of them.

Now that you know the signs of incorrect fuel in a car, or have experienced it, then you will try to be more cautious in future and be certain of not making the mistake. Engaging in mistakes like speeding, concentrating on different things and allowing the autopilot do it all particularly when driving a vehicle that you are unfamiliar with for instance a borrowed or hired vehicle is highly discouraged.
Presence of water in fuel is another problem
A sputtering engine with low power and too much smoke from the exhaust with an eventual stop are also indicators of water contamination. You should know that any fuel which is contaminated with water, regardless of whether your car consumes diesel or petrol , will always fail the engine resulting in an untimely stop.
Adblue is a diesel system additive typically put in a vehicle to make exhaust gases less polluted. However, it should only be utilized by professionals who understand where and how to use it. Otherwise, it may end up causing problems to your car. The incorrect usage can, however, be avoided through the use of its own AdBlue tank and filler cap. When somebody 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 perfectly and eventually stopping. The great thing is that we are here to help. Our technicians are professionals in this field too in addition to problems dealing with water contamination and incorrect fuel in the car.

Wrong Fuel in Car Undercliffe - Petrol in Diesel Car Undercliffe
Now I am not so inclined to doing work on weekends, and a while back was the same. I'd just left the wife and kids after a fantastic lunch prepared for us by the better half, and I was off to assist a man after he had filled the incorrect fuel in his Undercliffe. He was stationed nearby thus I was there rapidly. Just as I pulled up at the car and got out he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I had my attention on stuff and did not realise I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I brought on some problems because of starting it?" I explained truth be told there should not be damage and also that I would personally get the wrong fuel drained quickly. Obviously I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some correct fuel, and so one more contented motorist could carry on with their journey without the fuss. He could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that can make operating on Sundays just that little bit better to me!

This was most definitely an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was close to 2:30 in the morning and hardly anyone was about. It had become quite uneventful up to now, and me and Ray were relaxing perusing a couple of old articles. That was an unusual quiet hour. Actually it was in fact that peaceful that the instant my mobile finally rang it made me start! The customer on the phone explained: "I have only just ended my evening shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in a diesel Undercliffe by mistake". I asked him to tell us where exactly he was and we hit the road, reaching him not as much as half an hour later. The fuel was cleared from the car. He said thanks a lot for coming so rapidly. While we were returning home we found two women at the edge of the street who seemed like they had a puncture. So we got out to help them change it, much to their delight.
