It was after 8 pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Paul and me were relaxing there discussing the weekend's footy rankings, waiting around for the 6th job that day to arrive. Before long we got a phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Texaco filling garage in Hilton and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel husband's Peugeot 104 lease car by mistake. She was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I cannot believe I've messed up the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to worry, and also that these things sadly can happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a safe space and, as it was just a few miles from where we were, we were able to find the lady swiftly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to get back to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got fairly wet, it was all worth it to see her drive off contented and less concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in County Durham done well in my mind!

Wrong Fuel in Car TS15 Postcode - Hilton Misfuelling

A lady had stopped on a street, Hilton having just wrong fuelled. She was weeping and truly agitated as she had put £60 of petrol in her diesel car. As she phoned us we attempted to calm her as well as we could, reassuring her that it would be okay. When we arrived with her she was no longer aggrieved and was fascinated in watching our technician do the fuel drain on her father's Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500. Soon after she said: "My vehicle is like my child, I only recently paid for it so it truly horrified me that I had put such a large amount of wrong fuel in it. I'm terribly happy that it was very easily repairable."

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 refuelled and they will often be able to give you a VA 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 and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfuelled 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.
