It was after seven pm on a Monday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not given up on pouring! Brian and I were seated talking about the weekend's footy, prepared for the 8th job to arrive. In due time we got a phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Ardley and filled petrol in her diesel sunflower yellow Peugeot Partner rental car. She was quite distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I just can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to worry, and also that things like this sadly happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a protected space and, because it was no more than a few miles away from where we were, we were able to find the customer rather quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact we got pretty soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away satisfied and less worried. Another misfuel correction in Oxfordshire well done in my opinion!

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 refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT 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 misfueled 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.
