Wrong Fuel in Car Portavogie - Petrol in Diesel Car Portavogie

I'm certainly not very hot for carrying out work on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I had only just left the family following a fantastic lunch cooked for us by the missus, and I was off to assist a gentleman after he had filled the incorrect fuel in his light green Suzuki Reno. He was somewhere in Portavogie thus it wouldn't be a long time before I got to him. Just as I pulled up at the rear of the vehicle and got busy draining he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I had my concentration on other stuff and didn't ascertain I've put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I caused problems by running it?" I said that generally there should not be any damage and that I would personally get the contaminated fuel drained as soon as possible. Obviously I removed the fuel from the car and filled up with the suitable fuel, and so yet another happy motorist could carry on with their ride with no hassle. He couldn't stop thanking me, and this is exactly what tends to make operating on weekends in County Down just that tiny bit less painful in my opinion!

The customer stated: "I've ended my evening shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in a well-used Mitsubishi 3000GT". We told him to tell us just where the car was and we headed out, reaching him in Portavogie less than 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was extracted from the engine.

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.
