Wrong Fuel in Car Bottom Boat - Petrol in Diesel Car Bottom Boat
A customer with her children in her diesel Bottom Boat had filled her car with £50 of petrol at the BP filling station. She called us weeping and very worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel previously and didn't know what would happen to her vehicle . We reassured her that all would be alright and that she would be back ready to go soon. When we got there she was visible distressed but as our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she discovered that something could be done and her car wasn't ruined. She soon enough brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Particularly with the kids in the back."
Indicators of incorrect fuel
After refueling your tank, your vehicle may start experiencing some signs but you might not be able to grasp them all. Nonetheless, if your engine starts sputtering or if you start seeing lots of smoke emerging from the exhaust, or your vehicle stops and shows no power at all even though you push the accelerator harder and harder, then it is almost a given that you have put the wrong fuel in your car.
Noting all of the above, I suppose you'll be careful in your next stop at the gas station to refill. From now on, look out for those common causes of putting the incorrect fuel in your car:
- Being in a rush or flustered
- You're in autopilot mode and not checking
- You're using a vehicle you are not used to driving, borrowed or hired
Your fuel might also be contaminated with water
You should keep in mind that the contamination of fuel by water is another problem that can cause similar signs described above. It does not matter whether your car uses diesel or petrol, water can also cause it to work roughly and ultimately stop. So you should also be aware of it.
A lot of modern diesel engines use AdBlue, a system that cuts down the pollution of the engine. Having the correct ratio of AdBlue to fuel is critical, hence why a separate tank for the AdBlue. If somebody isn't aware of this and tries to add it directly into the tank, it will create problems. You will start observing the same symptoms mentioned above but you shouldn't be worried about it. Just keep in mind what we say to you, "we will always be around you and ready to help in your engine trouble, just ask for help and we'll be there".
Flammable materials require not only adequate expertise, but also a range of relevant equipment to deal with them appropriately. Otherwise, the fuel may ignite and what initially was easy to contain may turn into a catastrophe. You can handle the issue yourself or hire a friend to do it so as to save some money, but you are advised to hire an expert so as to avoid further fuel related problem.
Furthermore, our technicians are distributed across the country, and they are educated to manage various cars and sort various troubles at very economical prices and over an amazingly short time.
Environmental Fuel Disposal
Proper disposal of contaminated fuel is not only part of the incorrect fuel service but also a service that we provide to businesses and private individuals separately. All we ask from our clients who request us to drain, store or get rid of the contaminated oil is that they grant us complete access to the containers and whether they are fixed storage containers, mobile bowsers or a combination of tanks, they can trust us to do it in an appropriate and eco-friendly way.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Bottom Boat - Fuel Rescue Bottom Boat
What a good night of sleep! 7:00 am on a rainy Bank Holiday Monday and I was en route to assist an elder lady who put petrol in her diesel Bottom Boat. I had been informed she had left the petrol station and was broken down on a rural lane on route to pay a visit to her family. I got her location plugged in the Satnav and was on-scene in less than an hour or so. I arrived at the car and removed the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. As I was working she said, "I have been getting rather absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle using diesel seeing that I'd only acquired it a short while back when my former car, which I'd had for about twenty five years, finally died on me". I got the job completed and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. What a pleasant lady!
