It was close to 6 pm on a Saturday and even though we were assured a dry day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and I were relaxing going over the footy results, waiting for the 8th call that day to come in. Inevitably we got a phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Burntheath and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel husband's Nissan 350Z Roadster rental car. The unfortunate lady was fairly distressed apparently, telling me "I simply cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to fret, also that things like this sadly happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a safe position and, as it was only a few miles from our van, we were able to reach the lady fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the motel she was staying at. Although we got really drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off satisfied and less concerned.

It is definitely devastating to your automobile's fuel system, especially any time you run the engine with AdBlue in the fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the AdBlue is going to be pushed into the fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and costly problems to your car's fuel system.

I appreciated a perfect day golfing during the weekend and felt contented with myself the next working day as I set out to aid a new family on holiday in Burntheath. They'd pulled over after filling petrol into their mint green Seat, and were close to an hour's travel away. I got there at their position and smirked to myself as I heard to the girl telling off her husband for being so confused. "Just how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this occurs constantly in Derbyshire and that it is nothing at all to fret about, even so he in spite of everything had an earful by his better half. Unfortunate lad. At any rate, I removed the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I shouted farewell and thought about what my missus would ask me if perhaps I made the very same blunder... I would personally never ever live it down!

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.
