Mark and me were resting talking over the football results, waiting for the 8th job that day to arrive. Before long we had a phone call from a girl on a company trip who had gone to the Shell filling station in Dinnington St Johns and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel bright red Audi Quattro rental car. She was fairly distressed it seemed, telling me "I still cannot believe that I have wrecked the vehicle!

We fairly recently got a phone call about a businessman who had put the incorrect fuel in his immaculate Subaru Impreza WRX in Dinnington St Johns. He had come to a stand-still on the road. "After putting petrol in my diesel car I didn't notice the issue till I conked out. You removed the wrong fuel from my car and got it running once again. I was happy as a result of both your speed and your charges". Obviously we appeared punctually and purged the engine after flushing all the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank.

This was certainly what is called the night shift. It was about dawn and almost noone was stirring. It was fairly dead until now, and John and I were relaxing reading a number of old papers. That was an unusual calm time in South Yorkshire. Actually it was indeed that relaxing that the instant the phone inevitably rang I leaped! The person on the other end stated: "I concluded my overnight shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in a diesel dilapidated Cadillac Eldorado". We asked him to inform us where exactly the vehicle was and we left, reaching him in Dinnington St Johns not as much as an hour later. The fuel was removed from the motor. He said thank you for arriving so rapidly. As we were heading back to the depot we noticed two girls on the side of the street who appeared to have a flat. So we got out to change it, much to their delight.

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.
