Wrong Fuel in Car Barugh Green - Petrol in Diesel Car Barugh Green

Just had a great night of sleep! 7:00 on a gloomy Saturday and I was off to help an old woman who had put petrol in her diesel Barugh Green. She informed us that she had left the petrol station and broken down in a backwater lane on the way to see her family. I popped the location in the Satnav and was on-scene inside an hour. I reached the destination and extracted the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she told me, "I'm becoming somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the car taking diesel because I had only just bought it a short while ago right after my old car, which I had for about twenty five years, finally stopped working". I finished the drain and she presented me a toffee and said thank you. What a precious 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 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.
