It was actually in the early hours of the day and our technician, who resides nearby, arrived with him in less than a quarter hour.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Cuxton - Fuel Rescue Cuxton

A lady with her children in her diesel Cuxton had filled her vehicle with £42 of petrol at the Tesco station. She called us crying and really upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and didn't know what would happen to her car . We reassured her that the car would be ok and that she would be back on the road very quickly. When we arrived she was visible distressed but while our technician started work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she recognised that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She quickly cheered up and was on her way saying, "I really can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Specifically with the children on board."

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.
