Ahhh, that was a great night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a gloomy Sunday and we were off to help an elder lady who had put petrol in her diesel sky blue Land Rover Range Rover Classic in Ballymacnab. She told us that she had left the filling station forecourt and was stranded on a country lane on route to see her godchildren. I got the location plugged straight into the Satnav and was with her inside an hour or so. I turned up at the car and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. Whilst I was working she explained, "I have been getting relatively forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car taking diesel since I had only just bought it several days ago right after my other car, which I'd owned for more than 30 years, eventually gave up the ghost". I got the job completed and she gave me a Murray mint and said thanks. What a pleasant County Armagh woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car Ballymacnab - Petrol in Diesel Car Ballymacnab

I am not actually that enthusiastic about carrying out work on weekends, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I had only just left home after having a tasty lunch prepared for me by the wife, and I was off to assist a man who put the incorrect fuel in his sky blue Mercedes Sprinter 3500. He was located in Ballymacnab and so it wasn't a long time before I arrived with him. As I drove up behind the car and stepped out he said to me "Thank the Almighty! I had my attention on other things and did not perceive I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I caused any damage simply by running it?" I explained truth be told there probably should not be any harm and that also I would get the contaminated fuel drained quickly. Obviously I got the wrong fuel drained from the vehicle and filled up with some correct fuel, and yet another delighted customer could continue his ride without the bother. He did not stop saying thanks to me, and that is exactly what tends to make operating on weekends in County Armagh a little better in my opinion!

A lady from Ballymacnab with her children in her diesel modern Audi S6 had put £40 of petrol at the Texaco filling station. She phoned us sobbing and extremely worried as she had never wrong fuelled previously and didn't know what might happen to her car . We told her that everything would be fine and that she would be back on the road soon. When we got there she was still distressed but while our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she recognised that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She soon enough brightened up and was on her way saying, "I can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Especially with the little ones in the back."

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.
