Wrong Fuel in Car Wintersett - Petrol in Diesel Car Wintersett

You might be suspecting that you have put the wrong fuel in your vehicle, but you are uncertain of the signs. We have many the same cases of suspicions experienced by our customers, only for our technicians to discover a totally different problem upon arrival. In order for you to make sure your vehicle is experiencing problems as a result of wrong fuel, we have put together some of the common signs for you. If the engine starts spluttering and start working roughly, or if there is the production of too much smoke resulting in the low supply of power to the vehicle making it stop then there is a high probability that you have put the wrong fuel in your car.
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 deal with such problems in future. Engaging in mistakes like 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 vehicle is highly discouraged.
Presence of water in fuel is yet another issue
Presence of water in fuel is another thing which can make your vehicle behave in the way mentioned above. Hence you also have to consider it.

Adblue is a diesel system additive often put in a vehicle to make exhaust gases less dirty. But it can only be utilized by people who know how to use it properly. Otherwise, it may end up creating problems to your car. The wrong usage can, however, be avoided through the use of its own AdBlue tank and filler cap. When somebody who is inexperienced in administering AdBlue correctly, it is common that they miss the mark.
Such a problem is also shown by the car not moving smoothly hence reduced power and an eventual stoppage. The great thing is that we are here to help.

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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
