Wrong Fuel in Car Streethouse - Petrol in Diesel Car Streethouse

It was before 9 pm on a Thursday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Dan and me were resting there talking over the tennis, waiting around for the 8th fuel drain to come in. Inevitably we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Esso filling garage and put petrol in her diesel Streethouse hire car in error. The poor lady was fairly irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I still cannot believe that I have messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I had forgot that I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that these things do happen. She managed to move the car into a safe area and, because it was no more than a few miles from us, we were able to reach her right away. The bad fuel was taken out and she was able to get back to the motel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away calm and less stressed. A job done well in my opinion!



Causes and Obvious Signs

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

Apart from wrong fuel in your vehicle, water contamination can also cause your car to run badly before coming to a halt, regardless of the type of gas you use as a propellant. So, in case you experience the above signs, then you should suspect the two.

Wrong usage of AdBlue can also cause your engine to sputter, stop or create lots of smoke. However, we are always willing to help you. AdBlue is an additive utilized to enhance the anti-pollution system of the engine and should be utilized by an expert, in fact, it should be added using its own tank instead of being added directly alongside with fuel. You should thus only use it if you are fully aware of its procedure so as to prevent your vehicle from misbehaving because of the wrong usage of AdBlue. But we are capable of assisting you embark on your journey no matter if the problem is incorrect fuel or AdBlue contamination.
