Ahhh, that was a good night of sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Tuesday and we were off to assist an old lovely lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel raspberry red Lexus IS in Clapton. She told us that she had left the petrol station and stranded along a backwater road along the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I got the location punched straight into the TomTom and got there in less than an hour or so. I got to the stricken lady and extracted the wrong fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing it she said, "Now I'm getting quite absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car using diesel because I'd only just got it a few days back because my previous one, which I'd had for about twenty five years, finally stopped working". I got the job completed and she gave me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. What a delightful Somerset lady!

This was exactly the graveyard shift. It was close to 3:30 in the morning and hardly anyone was stirring. It had been rather quiet up to now, and me and Ray were sitting about looking through a couple of old articles. That was an unusual quiet time in Somerset. Actually it was indeed so relaxing that when my mobile rang it made me start! The customer on the phone told me: "I only just concluded my evening shift and stupidly filled petrol in the diesel uncle's BMW Z4 by mistake". We got him to inform us just where the car was located and we left, arriving in Clapton only an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was removed from the car and he said many thanks for showing up so rapidly. While we were heading back home we found two girls at the edge of the highway who seemed like they had a puncture. Accordingly we got out to 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 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.
