Wrong Fuel in Car Leeds - Petrol in Diesel Car Leeds

This was certainly the night shift. It was roughly 3:30 in the morning and hardly anyone was around. It had become fairly dead so far, and Paul and I were sitting looking at a couple of old magazines. This was an unusual tranquil hour. Actually it was in fact so quiet that when my mobile eventually rang I jumped! The person on the opposite end told me: "I have only just ended my night shift and foolishly put petrol in the diesel Leeds by mistake". I asked him to let us know where the vehicle was located and we headed out, arriving less than 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was cleared from the engine and he said thanks a lot for showing up so fast. As we were returning home we found two girls on the side of the road who seemed to have a flat tyre. So we got out to change it, to their elation.

Now that you know the signs of incorrect fuel in a vehicle, or have experienced it, then you will try to be more careful in future and be certain of not making the mistake. Engaging in mistakes such as speeding, concentrating on different things and letting the autopilot do it all particularly when driving a vehicle that you are unfamiliar with for example a borrowed or hired vehicle is discouraged.

Other than wrong fuel in your vehicle, water contamination can also cause your vehicle to run poorly before coming to a halt, regardless of the type of gas you utilize as a propellant. So, if you experience the above signs, then you should suspect the two.

The running of the engine is generally enhanced making use of a diesel system additive called AdBlue. However, it should just be utilized by professionals who understand where and how to use it. Or else, it would cause troubles and problems to your vehicle. 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 indicated by the car not running smoothly hence reduced power and an eventual stoppage. The great thing is that we are here to help. Our technicians are not just skilled on how to solve this issue but also on how to handle the problem of incorrect fuel and water contamination.

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 anywhere in West Yorkshire to 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.
