It was just before eight pm on a Tuesday and although we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Ryan and me were resting there talking about the weekend's tennis, at the ready for the seventh job to arrive. Eventually we got the phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Farington and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel rugged Volvo XC70 rental. The poor lady was very distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply cannot believe I have ruined the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I completely didn't remember I was using a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to be concerned, also that these things unfortunately happen.

Wrong Fuel in Car Farington - Petrol in Diesel Car Farington

Now I'm not overly interested in doing the job on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I had only just departed the family after a wonderful lunch prepared by the wife, and I was en route to help a fellow because he filled the wrong fuel in his rugged Cadillac STS-V. He was only in Farington so it wouldn't be a long time before I got to him. Just as I pulled up behind the vehicle and started work he explained to me "Thank the Almighty! I had my concentration on something else and didn't grasp that I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. I need to know if I inflicted any problems by simply running it?" I revealed there should not be any kind of damage and that also I would personally remove the contaminated fuel quickly. Obviously I removed the contaminated fuel from the car and filled up with some appropriate fuel, and one more pleased customer was able to carry on with their journey without any subsequent fuss. He could hardly stop thanking me, and this tends to make operating on weekends in Lancashire just that little bit less painful for me personally!

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.
