I got there at their car and smiled as I heard to the wife berating her husband for actually being so daft.

I attempted to tell her that this takes place all the time and that it is absolutely nothing to fret about, nevertheless he still got an ear bashing by his better half. I felt sorry for the lad.

Just had a great night of sleep! It was 7:30 on a bright Wednesday and I was on the way to assist an elder lady after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Upchurch. I had been told she had driven away from the filling station and stranded on a backwater lane on route to see her godchildren. I punched her location in the TomTom and arrived in less than an hour. I reached the stricken lady and removed the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing the work she said to me, "Now I'm becoming rather absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car needing diesel since I'd only got it several days ago when my old car, which I owned for more than 30 years, eventually gave up the ghost". I got the job completed and she presented me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. What a pleasant lady!

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.
