Before long we got a call from a woman on a business trip who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Runham Vauxhall and put petrol in a diesel modified Daewoo Nubira hire car in error. The unfortunate lady was rather troubled it seemed, telling me "I simply can't believe I have ruined the vehicle!

This was exactly the night shift. It was roughly sunrise and noone was stirring. It had become quite quiet until now, and Brian and I were relaxing perusing a few old newspapers. It was an uncommon restful time in Norfolk. It was in fact so quiet that the instant the phone eventually rang it made me start! The customer explained: "I completed my evening shift and stupidly poured petrol in a diesel mint green Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG in error". I got him to inform us exactly where he was and we left, arriving in Runham Vauxhall under an hour or so later. The fuel was cleared from the motor. He thanked us profusely for coming so promptly. While we were going back home we found two young ladies on the side of the road who looked like they had a flat tyre. Obviously we stopped and helped them change it, to their delight.

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 VA 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.
