It was around five pm on a Wednesday and though we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were relaxing commenting on the weekend's tennis, at the ready for the seventh job to arrive. Finally we got a phone call from a woman on a business excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Thurlaston and put the wrong fuel in her diesel canary yellow Audi Coupe Quattro lease car by mistake. She was quite troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I still can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that these things sadly can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected space and, because it was no more than a short distance off from us, we could arrive at the woman without delay. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to return to the motel she was living in. Although we got fairly wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away calm and less anxious. A fuel drain in Leicestershire well done in my mind!

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.
