Wrong Fuel in Car Halfpenny Gate - Halfpenny Gate Misfuelling

Ahhh, that was a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a bright Tuesday and we were off to help an older lovely lady after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel elegant Jeep Grand Cherokee in Halfpenny Gate. She informed us that she had left the filling station and was pulled up along a backwater road on the way to pay a visit to her family. I popped her location into the TomTom and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I got to the car and extracted the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was working she said, "I'm becoming somewhat forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car using diesel because I'd just purchased it a few days back when my former car, which I had had for in excess of thirty years, finally stopped working". I got the job completed and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a precious County Antrim woman!

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.
