Wrong Fuel in Car Owlet - Petrol in Diesel Car Owlet

A youngster who had recently got his licence had wrong fueled his Owlet by getting petrol in the diesel at the station. He said, "This is the third time I have put fuel in my vehicle since I bought it and I have no clue of how to proceed." He was also worried because his step father had only just paid for the car. He located us on the internet and so called it without delay, frightened about what he needed to do. Our person on the phones informed him that we would be on scene in forty five minutes and to not do anything to his car while he waited. We performed the drain on his vehicle and he said how surprised he was that it was dealt with so swiftly and no problem whatsoever.

• The exhaust emits lots of smoke
• Engine appears powerless now matter how hard you push the accelerator
• The car won't run anymore

We learn from experiences and mistakes so we shouldn't get too down so much whenever we encounter such situations since they make us more careful and equip us with the appropriate mentality and skills on how to handle such issues in future. Engaging in mistakes such as speeding, concentrating on different things and letting the autopilot do all of it particularly when driving a car that you are unfamiliar with for example a borrowed or hired car is highly 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 does not matter whether your vehicle runs on diesel or petrol, water can also cause it to run roughly and ultimately stop. So you should also know about it.

In order to enhance the cleanliness of modern diesel engines exhausts today, owner utilizes AdBlue. Having the right ratio of AdBlue to fuel is significant, hence why a separate tank for the AdBlue. If someone isn't mindful of this and attempts to add it directly into the tank, it will cause problems. Again, the symptoms are very like those stated above, and we can put things right for you. Just bear 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".

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.
