It was around ten pm on a Tuesday and though we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Ray and I were sitting there going over the recent golf, waiting for the seventh telephone call that day to come in. Finally we got a call from a girl on a business expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Newbold-on-Stour and put petrol in her diesel father's Chrysler Voyager hire car in error. She was pretty distressed apparently, crying "I can't believe I've destroyed the car! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to worry, plus that things like this unfortunately can happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a secure spot and, as it was just a few miles away from our van, we could arrive at the lady right away. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact we got very soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off calm and much less anxious. Yet another job in Warwickshire done well in my mind!

AdBlue is a chemical that’s composed of a mix of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%).

Wrong Fuel Assist Newbold-on-Stour - Wrong Fuel in Car Newbold-on-Stour

I had appreciated a fantastic evening fishing on my off day and felt contented with myself the following working day as I set out to aid a new family holidaying in Newbold-on-Stour. They had pulled over after filling diesel into their husband's Austin Mini, and they were roughly half an hour's travel away. I got there at their location and smiled to myself as I heard to the woman telling off her hubby for being so silly. "Just how could you possibly find a way to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this happens regularly in Warwickshire and that it's really absolutely nothing to be concerned about, even so he yet still got an earful by his missus. Poor guy. Anyway, I drained the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. While they drove away I mouthed so long and wondered what her indoors would say to me if ever I made the exact same mistake... I'd never live it down!

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.
