Wrong Fuel in Car Wrenthorpe - Petrol in Diesel Car Wrenthorpe
It was after 10 pm on a Tuesday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were relaxing there going over the recent football, waiting for the 6th telephone call that day to arrive. In due time we had the call from a girl on a business trip who had pulled into the Texaco filling garage and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Wrenthorpe rental. She was pretty distressed apparently, stating "I can not believe that I've destroyed the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that these things happen. She was able to get the car to a protected area and, since it was just a short distance from our van, we could get to the woman right away. The bad fuel was taken out and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got very drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive home contented and not so anxious. Yet another fuel drain done well in my books!
Things to search for in case you have put wrong fuel in vehicle
the symptoms of incorrect fuel are quite evident, but in most cases you might not be able to observe all of them. However, if your engine begins 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 press the accelerator harder and harder, then it is obvious that you have put the wrong fuel in your vehicle.

The fact that you now are aware the signs of wrong fuel in vehicle or have experienced it, it will help you notice the problem if it occurs again in future. You should avoid being in a rush, not focusing when you are on autopilot, and being in a car you are borrowing or hiring in order to avoid encountering the same mistake.
You should also bear in mind that incorrect fuel is not the only issue that can cause your car to show the above signs. The presence of water in fuel is another problem which can make your car not work efficiently and eventually stop, no matter the type of fuel utilized. This implies that if you experience any of the earlier mentioned signs, they could also be a result of either of the two.
A lot of modern diesel engines make use of AdBlue, a system that reduces the pollution of the engine. 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 right tank to put it in, your engine will be in big trouble because it's is wrong to mix it with fuel. You will start to notice the same symptoms mentioned above but you should not be worried about it. So the message is, ?if your engine splutters, smokes and stops, we can definitely help, and get you going again, whatever the cause?.

A man had conked out off a street. His Wrenthorpe engine had stopped operating and he had no clue what was the problem until eventually he realised he put petrol in his diesel car. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that's when he explained to us: "I can't believe that I didn't know that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had gotten virtually no sleep the night before and that must have been the reason.
