I had appreciated a wonderful day hiking during the weekend and was feeling pleased the next morning as I headed out to help a young couple on vacation in Claughton. They broken down after putting petrol in their metallic grey Mercedes CLK-Class, and were approximately half an hour's drive away. I turned up at their position and laughed to myself while I heard to the wife telling her hubby off for turning out to be so silly. "How could you conceivably be able to fill the vehicle up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to explain that this goes on on daily basis in Lancashire and that it is nothing at all to be anxious about, however he still got an ear bashing. Unlucky guy. Anyhow, I removed all the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the correct fuel. As they drove down the road I mouthed hasta la vista and considered what my wife would ask me if ever I made the very same error... I'd never 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 refuelled and they will often be able to give you a VA 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 misfuelled 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.
