It was just before 8 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't given up on raining! Paul and me were seated there discussing the tennis, waiting around for the 8th telephone call of the day to come in. Inevitably we got the phone call from a girl on a business expedition who had gone to the BP filling garage in Pen-y-lan and put the wrong fuel in a diesel white Kia Soul rental car. The poor lady was fairly irritated it seemed, stating "I can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I am so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that these things regrettably happen.

Wrong Fuel in Car Pen-y-lan - Petrol in Diesel Car Pen-y-lan

I'm not necessarily overly enthusiastic about running Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I had only just come away from home after a superb dinner made for us by the better half, and I was on the way to sort out a man after he had put the incorrect fuel in his dark blue Mercedes-Benz R-Class. He was somewhere in Pen-y-lan therefore I was on scene quickly. As I drove up behind the vehicle and started work he told me "Praise the Almighty! I had my attention on something else and didn't realise I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I caused any harm because of starting it?" I determined truth be told there shouldn't be any kind of damage and also I'd personally get the contaminated fuel drained immediately. It goes without saying that I removed the contaminated fuel from the car and filled up with the suitable fuel, and another content motorist could continue their ride without any subsequent fuss. He did not stop thanking me, and this is actually what makes working on Sundays in The Vale of Glamorgan just a little bit better for me personally!

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.
