Just had a good night of sleep! 7:30 on a bright Sunday and I was on the way to assist an elder woman who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel apple green Cadillac Eldorado in Tilehurst. I had been advised she had left the filling station and stranded along a backwater road en route to visit her godchildren. I punched the location straight into the Satnav and was with her within 60 minutes. I reached the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel from the car. As I was doing it she told me, "I'm getting relatively forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel because I had only just bought it several days back after my old car, which I had owned for more than 30 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I completed the job and she gave me a toffee and said thanks a lot. Such a pleasant Berkshire lady!

Wrong Fuel Assist Tilehurst - Wrong Fuel in Car Tilehurst

I enjoyed a terrific day cycling during my day off and was feeling satisfied the next day as I set off to help a young family who were holidaying in Tilehurst. They'd broken down after inserting diesel in their bright white Toyota Sequoia, and were close to an hour away. I turned up at their position and smiled as I heard to the wife telling her partner off for turning out to be so foolish. "Exactly how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this happens quite frequently in Berkshire and that it's absolutely nothing to get worried about, and yet he still had his ear bent. Unlucky guy. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching while they drove away I mouthed goodbye and pondered on what her indoors would say to me if ever I made the very same error... I would never 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 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.
