A number of the more routine stories we have heard from many of our engineers in Mill Hill:

Wrong Fuel in Car Mill Hill - Petrol in Diesel Car Mill Hill

I had a fantastic day cycling during my holiday and felt contented with myself the next working day as I set off to help a young family vacationing. They stopped after inserting petrol in their Mill Hill, and were around half an hour's travel away. I turned up at their location and smiled to myself while I listened to the lady telling her man off for actually being so foolish. "How could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this kind of thing comes to pass continuously and that it is nothing to be concerned about, even so he all the same had an ear bashing by his wife. Unfortunate lad. In any case, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. While they drove off I mouthed bon voyage and thought about what my wife would do to me if I did the exact same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Mill Hill - Fuel Rescue Mill Hill

It was close to five pm on a Wednesday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Ray and me were sitting there going over the weekend's football results, ready for the seventh job to come in. Finally we received a phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the Texaco petrol garage and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Mill Hill lease car by mistake. The poor lady was somewhat agitated by the sounds of it, crying "I can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I am just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to fret, plus that these things sadly often happen. She managed to get the car to a safe spot and, seeing that it was only a few minutes from the office, we could find the customer swiftly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the hotel she was staying at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive away satisfied and a lot less stressed. Yet another fuel drain 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.
