I'm not very keen on doing work on Sundays, and a while back was the same. I had only just departed the family following a fantastic dinner prepared for me by the better half, and I was off to sort out a man after he had filled the incorrect petrol in his rust red Lexus IS-F. He was situated in Eton thus I was with him quickly. As I arrived at the rear of the car and got out he explained to me "Thank the Almighty! I stupidly had my concentration on other things and didn't grasp that I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I brought on any kind of damage simply by driving it?" I stated that there shouldn't be any kind of damage and that also I would personally remove the contaminated fuel immediately for him. Naturally I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and then one more content motorist had the ability to continue his journey without the need for hassle. He couldn't stop thanking me, and that can make working on weekends in Berkshire a little easier for me personally!

This was exactly what is called the graveyard shift. It was roughly sunrise and noone was stirring. It had been fairly dead thus far, and me and John were relaxing perusing a few old articles. That was a rare quiet time in Berkshire. It was that quiet that the instant the phone eventually rang it made me jump! The motorist told me: "I only just ended my overnight shift and incredibly filled petrol in my father's Audi A6 in error". I instructed him to tell us exactly where the car was located and we headed out, getting to him in Eton not as much as 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the vehicle. He said thanks a lot for coming out so fast. While we were heading back to the depot we spotted two ladies on the edge of the highway who seemed like they had a flat. As a result we pulled up to change it, to their delight.

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.

    • 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.

  4. 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.
