Just had a good night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a bright Tuesday and we were en route to help an elder lovely lady who put petrol in her diesel buff Fiat in Ambaston. She told us that she had left the petrol station and pulled up in a backwater lane along the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got her location plugged in the Satnav and got there within an hour or so. I got to the car and drained the wrong fuel from the car. Whilst I was working she told me, "Now I'm getting rather absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the car needing diesel since I had only just got it a couple of days back after my former car, which I had used for about twenty years, finally broke down". I got the job completed and she gifted me a toffee and said thanks a lot. What a pleasant Derbyshire lady!

I enjoyed a fantastic day hiking during my off day and felt pleased the next morning as I headed out to aid a young family holidaying in Ambaston. They conked out after inserting the wrong fuel in their pristine Mazda Navajo, and they were close to half an hour away. I got there at their car and laughed to myself while I listened to the lady chastising her husband for turning out to be so daft. "Exactly how could you possibly find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to tell her that this comes to pass everyday in Derbyshire and that it's nothing at all to stress about, but he in spite of everything got an earful. Unfortunate guy. Anyway, I removed all the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive away I waved goodbye and considered what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I would personally never hear the end of it!

I am certainly not too keen on running on Sundays, and a while back was no different. I had just come away from the wife and kids filled with a fantastic Sunday roast prepared for us by the better half, and I was on the way to sort out a man who had put the wrong petrol in his mum's Mercedes SLK-Class. He was only in Ambaston hence I was there almost immediately. As I pulled up at the vehicle and got out he said to me "Praise the Lord! I foolishly had my mind on other stuff and failed to perceive I've put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I caused some damage as a result of running it?" I explained that truth be told there probably should not be any kind of damage and that I would remove the fuel quickly. Needless to say I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and filled it with some suitable fuel, and then another content motorist was able to continue their ride without any bother. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what helps make carrying out work on weekends in Derbyshire that little better to me!

This was the graveyard shift. It was about dawn and noone was stirring. It was quite dead thus far, and me and Mark were sitting around looking at several old newspapers. This was an unusual calm hour in Derbyshire. Actually it was in fact so quiet that the instant the telephone rang I leaped with surprise! The voice explained: "I concluded my night shift and foolishly put petrol in a sunflower yellow Audi S8 in error". We told him to tell us where exactly the vehicle was and we hit the road, reaching him in Ambaston less than an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the car and he thanked us for coming out so rapidly. While we were returning home we spotted two girls on the side of the road who seemed to have a flat. Obviously we pulled over to change it, 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 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.
