Wrong Fuel in Car Cartworth - Petrol in Diesel Car Cartworth
We've completed plenty of call-outs on cars or trucks with the incorrect fuel. Last month there was a woman with her Cartworth: "I incredibly added the incorrect fuel in my diesel motor and got stuck on the road. You had one of your technicians out to me within around 30 minutes and the car was working again very quickly. You had me back on the road once more inside 60 minutes. I really appreciate it."
Symptoms and Causes
You will likely have just experienced signs of having the wrong fuel in your car, 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:
- The engine won't run and it's spluttering
- The exhaust produces lots of smoke
- Your car won't have power no matter how hard you press the accelerator
- The vehicle will stop on its own
Having said so, if you ever find yourself in a strange car or a car where the autopilot is driving, you should just relax. Since you are now acquainted with signs of wrong fuel or have experienced it, once it occurs you should be able to notice it. It would not matter if you are concentrating on the issue or not, you will just identify it.
As pointed out earlier, there are other issues that could be the cause of your vehicle problems other than incorrect fuel. Water contamination is one of them, which causes similar poor vehicle performance, generally ending in your vehicle breaking down. This means that if you encounter any of the previously mentioned signs, they could also be a result of either of the two.
Adblue is a diesel system additive typically put in a vehicle to make exhaust gases less polluted. However, it should just be used by experts who understand where and how to use it. Otherwise, it may end up causing problems to your car. To avoid any problems, AdBlue should be contained in a separate tank. The probability of misusing AdBlue is pretty high especially if done by somebody with no knowledge in this.
Such a problem is also shown by the vehicle not moving smoothly hence reduced power and an eventual stoppage. 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 wrong fuel in the car.

Wrong Fuel in Car Cartworth - Petrol in Diesel Car Cartworth
Now I'm not ever that excited about doing work on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I'd just left the wife and kids after having a wonderful roast cooked by the wife, and I was on the way to help a fellow who had filled the incorrect fuel in his Cartworth. He was located nearby and so it wasn't a long time before I reached him. As I pulled up at the vehicle and started work he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I foolishly had my attention on other considerations and failed to realise I've put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I brought about some problems through running it?" I explained truth be told there shouldn't be harm and that also I'd personally get the fuel drained immediately. Needless to say I removed the contaminated fuel from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and so yet another contented client could continue on his journey without any subsequent hassle. He couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and this tends to make operating on Sundays just a tiny bit better for me!
Wrong Fuel Doctor Cartworth - Fuel Rescue Cartworth
What a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a sunny Tuesday and I was on the way to assist an old sweetheart who put petrol in her diesel Cartworth. She told us that she had left the filling station and was broken down along a country road on the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I punched her location into the Satnav and got there within 60 minutes. I got to the destination and removed the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she said, "I am becoming rather forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel seeing that I'd only got it a couple of days back right after my other one, which I'd used for more than 25 years, inevitably broke down". I got the drain completed and she presented me a Murray mint and said thanks. What a lovely woman!

- Engine coughing or starting to splutter
- Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
