It was before 9 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Dan and me were sitting there commenting on the recent football, waiting for the sixth call to arrive. Inevitably we received a call from a lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Tynan and put petrol in a diesel partner's Hyundai Scoupe rental car in error. The unfortunate lady was rather agitated it seemed, saying "I still can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to worry, and also that things like this unfortunately happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a protected position and, because it was just a few minutes away from our van, we could find the customer right away. The incorrect fuel was drained so she was able to return to the motel she was lodging in. Although we got fairly wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away calm and a lot less stressed. Another job in County Armagh done well in my mind!

Wrong Fuel in Car Tynan - Tynan Misfuelling

Just had a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a rainy Wednesday and we were on the way to assist an older woman who had put petrol in her diesel new Mitsubishi Excel in Tynan. She told us that she had left the filling station forecourt and was stranded on a rural lane along the way to visit her grandchildren. I got the location plugged straight into the Satnav and arrived within 60 minutes. I turned up at the car and extracted the wrong fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing the work she explained, "I am becoming relatively absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle using diesel seeing that I'd only acquired it a week ago because my former car, which I'd had for over twenty years, finally died". I got the job done and she gave me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a lovely County Armagh woman!

I'd had a perfect day fishing on my holiday and was feeling cheerful with myself the next morning as I set out to aid a new family who were away in Tynan. They stopped after adding diesel in their bright white Alfa Romeo164, and were about half an hour away. I emerged at their car and smirked to myself as I listened to the woman chastising her spouse for actually being so confused. "Precisely how could you even find a way to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to explain that this comes to pass quite frequently in County Armagh and that it's really nothing to be concerned about, nonetheless he all the same got his ear bent. Unfortunate lad. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive off I waved farewell and wondered what her indoors would do to me in the event that I made the same mistake... I would personally never hear the end of it!

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.
