Wrong Fuel in Car Lower Altofts - Petrol in Diesel Car Lower Altofts

This was an unsociable hour to be awake. It was around dawn and almost noone was about. It was fairly quiet so far, and me and Brian were sitting looking at a couple of old newspapers. This was a rare tranquil time. It was so quiet that the instant my mobile rang it made me jump! The customer on the opposite end told me: "I've only just finished my overnight shift and incredibly filled petrol in the Lower Altofts by mistake". I instructed him to tell us where he was and we headed out, getting to him 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the engine and he said thank you for coming out so promptly. As we were heading back home we spotted two young women on the edge of the street who appeared to have a flat. Obviously we got out to change it, to their elation.

Things to search for if you have put wrong fuel in car

The signs of wrong fuel are quite evident, but in most cases you might not be able to notice all of them. However, if you were driving a car, and abruptly you notice that your vehicle is emitting too much smoke through the exhaust and your engine is sputtering abnormally while the car loses power slowly regardless of how much energy you are applying on the accelerator and ultimately comes to a stop, then there is little doubt that you are facing a wrong fuel in your car issue.

Now that you are aware of the indicators of wrong fuel in a car, 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 various things and letting the autopilot do all of it particularly when driving a vehicle that you are unfamiliar with for instance a borrowed or hired vehicle is discouraged.

Your fuel might also be contaminated with water

A sputtering engine with low power and a lot of smoke from the exhaust with an eventual stop are also indicators of water contamination. It will make your vehicle behave abnormally and eventually stops regardless of whether it runs on diesel or petrol thus you should also suspect it if you are in a situation of doubt.

AdBlue is a diesel system additive that makes the engine work cleaner. However, it should only be used by professionals who understand where and how to use it. Otherwise, it may end up creating problems to your vehicle. The wrong usage can, however, be avoided by using its own AdBlue tank and filler cap. But it is very possible to experience incorrect AdBlue usage, especially if the additive is added directly to the fuel or added by someone who is not aware of the procedure.

The signs of AdBlue contamination also include the car not running perfectly and eventually stopping. The great thing is that we are here to help. Our technicians are not just skilled on how to deal with this problem but also on how to solve the issue 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.
