It was about 9 pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a rainless afternoon, it had not given up on raining! Brian and I were seated there commenting on the recent golf results, at the ready for the 6th fuel drain that day to come in. Eventually we had a phone call from a girl on a business trip who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Whitebrook and filled petrol in her diesel dark green Ford C-MAX Hybrid rental car by mistake. She was quite affected by the sounds of it, crying "I cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that things like this sadly happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a protected space and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles off from us, we could arrive at her right away. The incorrect fuel was removed and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Although we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive off calm and less stressed. One more fuel drain in Monmouthshire well done in my books!

Wrong Fuel Assist Whitebrook - Wrong Fuel in Car Whitebrook

I appreciated a perfect day fishing on the weekend and felt contented the following morning as I headed out to aid a new family who were on holiday in Whitebrook. They'd pulled over after filling the wrong fuel in their aunt's Ford Focus, and the car was roughly an hour away. I emerged at their location and smirked as I listened to the girl chastising her hubby for actually being so foolish. "Just how could you possibly find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to tell her that this occurs quite frequently in Monmouthshire and that it's truly absolutely nothing to fret about, but he all the same got an earful by his missus. Unlucky lad. Anyhow, I drained out all of the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some proper fuel. While they drove down the road I waved goodbye and wondered what my missus would do to me if I made the very same error... I would never ever hear the end of 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 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.
