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

Ahhh, that was a great night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a warm Wednesday and we were en route to help an older lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Wick Hill. She informed us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and broken down along a rural road en route to see her family. I got her location plugged in the TomTom and was with her inside an hour or so. I turned up at the car and drained the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was working she explained, "I'm becoming fairly forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car working with diesel because I had only purchased it a short while back after my former car, which I had used for in excess of twenty years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I got the drain done and she presented me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. What a pleasant lady!

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.
