Wrong Fuel in Car Birds Edge - Petrol in Diesel Car Birds Edge
We got a phone call from a man whose Birds Edge had broken down on a street after a misfuel. "I confused the pumps and pumped petrol instead of diesel in my vehicle by mistake. You guys arrived and sorted out the matter right after my car died." We purged the petrol from the diesel tank and flushed the engine meticulously and the customer was able to proceed with his scheduled delivery.
Causes and Obvious Signs
You will likely have just experienced signs of having the wrong fuel in your vehicle, but in the heat of the moment, you may not have taken them all in so here they are again for future reference, in case:
- Spluttering engine and it won't run efficiently
- You may observe a lot of smoke coming from the exhaust
- Engine appears powerless now matter how hard you push the accelerator
- The car won't work anymore
Noting all of the above, I assume you'll be very careful in your next stop at the fuel station to refill. You may come back to think what caused the wrong fuel problem in the first place.
- You're in a hurry and confused on what to do
- You're in autopilot mode and not checking
- Vehicle you are utilizing is borrowed, you're not familiar with it
Your fuel might also be contaminated with water
Presence of water in fuel is another thing which can make your vehicle behave in the way mentioned above. Hence you also need to consider it. It will make your car behave abnormally and ultimately stops regardless of whether it uses diesel or petrol thus you should also suspect it if you find yourself in a situation of doubt.
Adblue is a diesel system additive usually put in a vehicle to make exhaust gases less polluted. It is typically administered wrongly, as such, it is crucial that it is done by somebody who knows how to utilize it. Or else, it would cause troubles and problems to your vehicle. The incorrect usage can, however, be avoided by using its own AdBlue tank and filler cap. When somebody who is inexperienced in administering AdBlue correctly, it is very common that they miss the mark.
Just like when a vehicle has wrong fuel, AdBlue also causes the car not to move smoothly and eventually lead to the car to stop. The great thing is that we are here to help. Our mobile technicians are used to managing a wide range of vehicle problems, not only water contamination or having the incorrect fuel in the car but this type of problem too.
Flammable materials require not only adequate expertise, but also a variety of relevant tools to deal with them appropriately. Otherwise, the fuel may ignite and what initially was easy to contain may turn into a catastrophe. You can solve the problem yourself or hire a friend to do it so as to save money, but you are advised to hire a professional so as to avoid any further fuel related issue.
We are professionals in coping with whatever vehicle issues you have. Our technicians are well distributed all around the country and on call 24/7, ready to deal with a wide range of problems quickly and efficiently, at a fair and economical price.
Our business is environmental agency certified, and we take pleasure in serving our clients while preserving the environment to our level best. After draining and flushing the fuel system of customers who have put wrong fuel in their cars, or whose fuel is contaminated, we store and then get rid of the contaminated fuel in accordance with the law.
As long as we have access, there's no limit on the size of the contaminated fuel tank. Whether it is a fixed storage tank, a mobile bowser or a group of containers with contaminated fuel, be assured we've got you covered.
In the unlikely event that wrong fuel or contaminated fuel isn't the issue, our experienced technician will be able to determine that, and the likely cause and we will only make a nominal call out fee, not the originally quoted price.
How long does it take to drain the wrong fuel
Works by the mechanic won't take very long, so you do not have to wait for hours. On average, you will be on your way, and getting on with your day in about thirty minutes.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Birds Edge - Fuel Rescue Birds Edge
Ahhh, that was a good night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a sunny Saturday and we were on the way to assist an elder lady who put contaminated fuel in her diesel Birds Edge. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was broken down along a country lane on the way to visit her godchildren. I popped the location into the Satnav and got there inside an hour. I turned up at the car and extracted the wrong fuel out of the car. Whilst I was doing the work she explained, "I'm getting rather absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel since I had just bought it several days ago right after my other one, which I had for about thirty years, inevitably died". I completed the job and she presented me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. Such a pleasant lady!
