This was most definitely an unsociable hour to be up. It was roughly 2am and almost noone was about. It had been fairly dead so far, and Ryan and I were relaxing reading through a number of old papers. It was an unusual peaceful hour. Actually it was in fact so tranquil that when the telephone eventually rang it made me jump! The customer on the opposite end told me: "I only just completed my overnight shift and stupidly put petrol in my diesel Wickersley". We asked him to tell us exactly where he was located and we set off, getting to him under half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the motor and he thanked us for showing up so rapidly. While we were heading back home we found two girls at the side of the highway who looked like they suffered a flat. So we pulled up to help them change it, to their elation.

Wrong Fuel in Car Wickersley - Petrol in Diesel Car Wickersley

It was close to ten pm on a Thursday and though we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were relaxing talking over the weekend's sports rankings, waiting for the 8th fuel drain that day to arrive. Before long we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Wickersley hire car by mistake. She was quite affected it seemed, crying "I simply can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that things like this do happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a protected position and, since it was no more than a short distance away from the office, we were able to reach the woman quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she could once again go back to the hotel she was residing at. Despite the fact we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home satisfied and a lot less apprehensive. One more job well done in my opinion!

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 anywhere in South Yorkshire to 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.
