Wrong Fuel Assist Hillsborough - Wrong Fuel in Car Hillsborough

I'd had a terrific evening fishing during my holiday and was feeling contented with myself the next day as I was on the way to assist a young couple on holiday in Hillsborough. They had stopped after adding diesel into their faithful Kia Spectra5, and were about half an hour's drive away. I turned up at their position and smirked while I listened to the gal telling off her hubby for being so confused. "Precisely how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this occurs constantly in County Down and that it's nothing at all to fret about, however he still had his ear bent by his missus. Poor guy. In any case, I removed all the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. While they drove down the road I mouthed good-bye and thought about what her indoors would ask me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!

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.
