Wrong Fuel in Car Hartshead - Petrol in Diesel Car Hartshead

We completed a wrong fuel removal exercise near a spectacular residential home a few weeks ago. "I put petrol in my diesel car and was able to very nearly get home when my car broke down." Our specialist went out, even though it was fairly late at night, and carried out a standard fuel drain and purge on the Hartshead .

  • The engine won't work and it's spluttering

  • Engine appears powerless now matter how hard you push the accelerator
  • The car won't run anymore

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!



That experience of filling up your tank with the incorrect fuel would teach a harsh lesson to be very careful in the future. You may come back to think what caused the wrong fuel problem in the first place.

  • You are in a hurry and confused on what to do
  • Not focusing - being on autopilot
  • Car you are utilizing is borrowed, you're not familiar with it

You should also bear in mind that wrong fuel is not the only issue that can cause your car to show the aforementioned indications. The presence of water in fuel is another issue which can make your vehicle not run efficiently and eventually stop, no matter the type of fuel utilized. So, if you experience the above signs, then you should suspect the two.

To be able to improve the cleanliness of modern diesel engines exhausts today, owner uses AdBlue. The right amount of AdBlue to be added in the fuel system is very essential. It's generally mounted on a separate tank to prevent directly mixing to your fuel tank. If someone directly added this to your tank not realizing the correct tank to put it in, your engine will be in big trouble since it is is wrong to mix it with fuel. You will start to notice similar symptoms mentioned above but you should not be worried about it. Just remember 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".


Diesel or petrol being very flammable needs to be handled by an expert with the proper tools.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

  1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
    • Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
    • A lot of smoke (more than usual)
    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
  2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
  3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
  4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
