It was before six pm on a Wednesday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on pouring! Brian and me were resting there going over the footy rankings, ready for the next call to arrive. Inevitably we had a call from a lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the BP filling garage and put petrol in a diesel Clap Hill rental car in error. The poor lady was very irritated apparently, stating "I can not believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that these things regrettably often happen. She had managed to move the car to a secure position and, since it was only a short distance from the office, we were able to get to her fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the hotel she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got pretty drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off contented and much less concerned. A misfuel correction done well in my opinion!

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 anywhere in Kent to 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.
