James and I were seated there talking about the weekend's sports results, prepared for the 6th job of the day to come in. Finally we received a call from a woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Glenavy and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel sombre grey Land Rover Freelander II rental car by mistake. She was fairly irritated it seemed, crying "I can't believe I've destroyed the car! I am so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and that these things do happen.

Wrong Fuel in Car Glenavy - Glenavy Misfuelling

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night of sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a rainy Bank Holiday Monday and I was on the way to help an older lady who put the wrong fuel in her diesel daughter's Lexus in Glenavy. I'd been advised she had left the petrol station forecourt and broken down on a backwater road on route to visit her godchildren. I punched her location into the Satnav and got there inside 60 minutes. I arrived at the destination and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she said to me, "I'm becoming fairly forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel since I had only purchased it a short while ago after my other car, which I'd had for over twenty five years, finally died on me". I got the drain done and she gave me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a delightful County Antrim lady!

This really was what is called an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was about 2am and nobody was stirring. It was quite uneventful until now, and Ray and I were relaxing reading several old papers. It was a rare tranquil moment in County Antrim. Actually it was indeed so relaxing that the instant the telephone eventually rang I leaped! The voice said: "I have just completed my night shift and foolishly put petrol in my diesel silver Land Rover by mistake". I instructed him to let us know where he was and we set off, ending up in Glenavy not as much as 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the car. He said thanks for coming so quickly. While we were coming back to the office we noticed two girls on the side of the highway who appeared to have a flat. Accordingly we pulled over to help them change it, much to their elation.

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.
