It was around seven pm on a Wednesday and although we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Paul and me were resting discussing the recent football, waiting for the seventh fuel drain for the day to arrive. In due time we got a phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Esso petrol station in Gosport and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel blue Mitsubishi Precis rental. She was pretty distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I can not believe I have wrecked the car! I am just so used to filling up my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and that such things do happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure space and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles away from where we were, we were able to find the customer fairly quickly.

This was an unsociable hour to be up. It was around 3 in the morning and noone was stirring. It was rather dead so far, and Brian and I were sitting around looking through a number of old newspapers. That was an unusual restful hour in Hampshire. Actually it was indeed that peaceful that the instant the phone rang it made me jump! The customer on the opposite end said: "I've ended my evening shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in my brother's Lexus LX in error". I told him to inform us where the car was and we hit the road, arriving in Gosport no more than half an hour later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle. He said many thanks for showing up so rapidly. As we were returning to the office we saw two girls at the side of the road who looked like they had a puncture. As a result we pulled up to change it, to their elation.

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.

    • 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.
