It was just after 8 pm on a Friday and although we were promised a rainless night, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were relaxing there commenting on the weekend's rugby rankings, at the ready for the 8th job of the day to come in. In due time we got the call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling garage in Monkswood and put the wrong fuel in her diesel father's Honda Accord lease car in error. The poor lady was pretty affected it seemed, saying "I can't believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to fret, and that these things happen. She managed to move the car into a protected space and, since it was no more than a short distance from the office, we could reach the customer rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was living in. Even though we got really wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away relaxed and less apprehensive. Another misfuel correction in Monmouthshire 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 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.
