Wrong Fuel Assist Foulden - Wrong Fuel in Car Foulden

I appreciated a terrific evening golfing during my afternoon off and felt contented the next working day as I was on the way to assist a new couple vacationing in Foulden. They pulled over after filling diesel into their elegant Land Rover Freelander, and were roughly an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and smirked to myself while I heard to the girl chastising her partner for being so foolish. "Precisely how could you conceivably find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to tell her that this happens frequently in Norfolk and that it's truly absolutely nothing to get worried about, and yet he all the same had an earful. I felt sorry for the boy. Anyways, I extracted all the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. As they drove away I waved good bye and wondered what my missus would say to me if perhaps I did the same thing... I'd never ever live it down!

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 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 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.
