Wrong Fuel Doctor Ryecroft - Fuel Rescue Ryecroft

What a fantastic night's sleep! 7:30 am on a rainy Saturday and I was on the way to assist an old sweetheart who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Ryecroft. She told us that she had left the filling station and stranded in a rural lane en route to see her grandchildren. I punched the location in the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour or so. I reached the car and extracted the wrong fuel from the car. Whilst I was working she said, "I'm getting relatively forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car needing diesel because I had only just got it a short while ago because my previous car, which I'd had for in excess of thirty years, eventually died on me". I got the drain done and she gave me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. What a pleasant lady!

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.

    • 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.
