This really was what is called an unsociable time to be up. It was about 3am and almost noone was stirring. It was rather uneventful so far, and Mark and I were sitting browsing several old papers. It was an uncommon calm moment. Actually it was indeed that tranquil that when my mobile ultimately rang I leaped with surprise! The voice stated: "I have just finished my night shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in my diesel Lower Bitchet in error". We told him to tell us exactly where he was located and we left, arriving under 30 minutes later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle and he said thanks a lot for coming out so promptly. As we were going back to the office we found two girls at the edge of the road who seemed like they suffered a flat tyre. As a result we got out to change it, much to their elation.

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.
