It was around ten pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! James and I were sitting there talking about the recent golf results, at the ready for the sixth telephone call to come in. Finally we got a phone call from a woman on a company excursion who had gone to the BP filling station in Borrowby and put petrol in a diesel cyan Mazda B2500 hire car. The poor lady was somewhat troubled apparently, telling me "I cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to be concerned, and that such things sadly do happen. She was able to move the car into a safe area and, as it was no more than a few minutes away from the office, we could get to the woman swiftly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was staying in. Although we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away relaxed and much less apprehensive. One more fuel drain in North Yorkshire done well in my mind!

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 refuelled 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 misfuelled 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.
