Wrong Fuel in Car Gibraltar - Petrol in Diesel Car Gibraltar

A lady had broken down on a road, just after having wrong fueled. She was weeping and very distressed as she had put £60 petrol in her diesel car. When she contacted us we tried to sooth her as best we could, encouraging her that it would be okay. By the time we reached her she was no longer aggrieved and was rather intrigued in watching our engineer do the fuel drain on her Gibraltar. Afterwards she said: "My vehicle is akin to my child, I just bought it and thus it genuinely worried me that I had put a whole lot of wrong fuel in it. I'm very pleased that it was easily repairable."

Wrong Fuel Doctor Gibraltar - Fuel Rescue Gibraltar

I enjoyed a great afternoon golfing on my holiday and felt delighted the next day as I headed out to help a young couple who were holidaying. They had broken down after adding petrol into their Gibraltar, and were approximately half an hour's drive away. I turned up at their car and smirked as I listened to the gal chastising her partner for being so foolish. "Precisely how could you even find a way to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this comes to pass quite frequently and that it's really nothing at all to worry about, nonetheless he still had an ear bashing. Unlucky lad. At any rate, I extracted the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some proper fuel. While they drove off I waved bon voyage and wondered what her indoors would do to me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I would personally never ever 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 anywhere in Kent to 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.
