It was after eight pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless night, it had not given up on raining! Ryan and me were relaxing there commenting on the weekend's rugby, at the ready for the next job to come in. Inevitably we got a phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Burnfoot and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel white Jeep Commander lease car in error. The poor thing was quite agitated by the sounds of it, crying "I simply cannot believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to worry, also that such things sadly often happen. She had managed to get the car to a protected spot and, because it was only a few miles off from the office, we could get to the woman quickly. The wrong fuel was removed so she could get back to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off calm and a lot less apprehensive. Another job in County Derry done well in my books!

This was exactly the graveyard shift. It was around 3:30 in the morning and noone was stirring. It had become rather quiet until now, and Ray and I were relaxing reading a few old magazines. This was an uncommon calm moment in County Derry. It was so tranquil that the moment my mobile finally rang I jumped with surprise! The voice stated: "I only just concluded my evening shift and incredibly filled the wrong fuel in a super Mercedes-Benz R-Class". We told him to tell us exactly where the car was situated and we set off, arriving in Burnfoot less than half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned from the vehicle and he said thank you for showing up so promptly. As we were returning home we noticed two ladies at the side of the road who seemed like they had a flat. As a result we pulled over to change it, much to their elation.

The following is a list of very common wrong fuel symptoms or signs:

  • Loss in vehicle power
  • Car cutting out, chugging or even coughing
  • Difficulty starting the engine
  • Excessive fumes

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.
