All this is done both safely and legally, not to mention at really competitive costs.

In case of any fuel system associated problems, it's best to note that we can handle whatever is affecting it.

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.

It was about 6 pm on a Monday and while we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and I were resting there discussing the weekend's tennis rankings, ready for the 8th job of the day to arrive. Finally we had the call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had arrived at the BP petrol garage and filled petrol in her diesel Greenhill rental by mistake. The unfortunate thing was fairly agitated apparently, saying "I can not believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to worry, and also that such things unfortunately do happen. She managed to move the car to a protected space and, since it was only a few minutes off from where we were, we could find the customer quickly. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to return to the hotel she was staying at. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off relaxed and not so concerned. A misfuel correction done well in my opinion!
