It was about six pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry evening, it had not given up on pouring! Mark and I were resting there talking about the weekend's footy, waiting for the 6th fuel drain for the day to arrive. Eventually we got the phone call from a lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Cantlop and filled petrol in her diesel grass green Smart Fortwo rental by mistake. She was rather irritated it seemed, crying "I cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that these things unfortunately can happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a safe space and, since it was just a few miles off from where we were, we were able to get to the lady swiftly. The contaminated fuel was removed so she could go home to the motel she was staying in.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Cantlop

I am not necessarily too enthusiastic about running Sundays, and last week was the same. I'd only just departed the wife and kids filled with a fantastic roast prepared for me by the better half, and I was on the way to help a guy because he put the incorrect petrol in his dark red Isuzu i-Series. He was located in Cantlop so I was with him almost immediately. As I arrived at the rear of the vehicle and got out he told me "Praise God! I had my attention on other things and failed to ascertain I had put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I created any kind of problems by running it?" I stated truth be told there should not be harm and that I'd drain the contaminated fuel right away for him. Needless to say I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some suitable fuel, and thus another happy customer could continue on their trip without any subsequent fuss. The guy did not stop saying thanks to me, and that tends to make working on Sundays in Shropshire that little bit less painful to me!

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.
