It was just after 7 pm on a Wednesday and though we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were sitting talking over the weekend's rugby results, at the ready for the 8th telephone call of the day to come in. Eventually we received a phone call from a lovely women on a company trip who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Grange Corner and put the wrong fuel in her diesel yellow Suzuki Grand Vitara rental car by mistake. She was pretty agitated it seemed, stating "I just can't believe I've messed up the car! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to worry, and also that these things sadly often happen. She managed to relocate the car to a secure area and, because it was only a few minutes off from the office, we could find the lady quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she could return to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact we got fairly wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive off relaxed and not so anxious. Yet another job in County Antrim well done in my mind!

This was most definitely the night shift. It was about 3:30am and almost noone was around. It had become fairly uneventful thus far, and me and Ryan were relaxing looking through a number of old newspapers. It was an uncommon restful hour in County Antrim. It was indeed that tranquil that when the phone rang I jumped with surprise! The person on the phone said: "I have ended my overnight shift and incredibly filled the wrong fuel in the diesel mate's Dodge Avenger by mistake". I instructed him to tell us where exactly the vehicle was and we left, reaching him in Grange Corner only half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleared from the car. He said many thanks for arriving so rapidly. While we were returning home we noticed two young ladies at the side of the road who seemed to have a flat tyre. So we pulled up to 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.
