It was after 10 pm on a Wednesday and while we were assured a dry and fresh day, it had not given up on pouring! Paul and me were seated discussing the weekend's rugby, waiting for the 6th job for the day to come in. Inevitably we received a call from a woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the Texaco filling station in Outwick and filled petrol in her diesel trusty Renault Clio rental by mistake. The poor thing was quite troubled by the sounds of it, saying "I just can't believe I have wrecked the car! I am just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that such things regrettably do happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a protected area and, as it was no more than a short distance away from the office, we were able to find the lady swiftly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could return to the hotel she was staying at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive off calm and not so stressed. Another job in Hampshire done well in my opinion!

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.
