Wrong Fuel in Car Sholden - Petrol in Diesel Car Sholden

I'm not ever excessively keen on working on weekends, and a week ago was no different. I'd just departed home filled with a tasty lunch made for us by the missus, and I was en route to deal with a gentleman because he put the incorrect petrol in his Sholden. He was somewhere nearby so I arrived on scene rapidly. As I pulled up behind the vehicle and got busy draining he explained to me "Praise God! I foolishly had my thoughts on other stuff and didn't realise I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it likely I brought about any harm through driving it?" I explained that there shouldn't be any damage and that I'd remove the fuel immediately. Naturally I drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle and filled it with some suitable fuel, and then one more contented motorist had the ability to continue on their traveling without the need for bother. The gentleman couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and that is actually what tends to make working on Sundays just that little bit easier for me personally!

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.
