Wrong Fuel Assist The Twittocks - Wrong Fuel in Car The Twittocks

I had a terrific evening fishing during the weekend and was feeling satisfied with myself the following morning as I was on the way to aid a young couple who were holidaying in The Twittocks. They conked out after adding petrol in their dark blue Seat Mii, and were about an hour's travel away. I emerged at their location and laughed to myself while I listened to the woman telling her hubby off for actually being so foolish. "How could you even be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this occurs continuously in Gloucestershire and that it's really absolutely nothing to get worried about, and yet he still had an ear bashing. Unfortunate chap. Anyway, I extracted all the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive off I shouted bon voyage and pondered on what my wife would say to me if I did the same thing... I'd personally never live it down!

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 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.
