Wrong Fuel in Car Havant - Havant Misfuelling

What a great night's sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a bright Wednesday and I was off to help an elder lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel bright white Hyundai Equus in Havant. I'd been advised she had left the filling station and broken down on a rural lane along the way to visit her family. I plugged her location straight into the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour or so. I got to the stricken lady and removed the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. While I was working she said, "I have been getting relatively absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel because I had only bought it a couple of days ago right after my old car, which I'd had for in excess of twenty years, inevitably broke down". I got the drain completed and she offered me a peppermint and said thanks. Such a pleasant Hampshire woman!

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.
