It was after ten pm on a Wednesday and though we were promised a dry night, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Brian and I were seated there commenting on the recent rugby, at the ready for the 6th telephone call that day to come in. Before long we got a phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Greystones hire car. She was fairly distressed it seemed, crying "I still can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to worry, and that such things unfortunately can happen. She was able to move the car to a safe position and, seeing that it was just a few miles away from us, we could find her almost instantly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to go home to the hotel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all worth it to watch her drive home relaxed and less worried. One more fuel drain well done in my opinion!

A man had stopped off a street. His Greystones engine had stopped operating and he had no idea what was the problem until eventually he realised he put petrol in his diesel car. He called us to request a fuel drain and that is when he told us: "I can not believe that I didn't comprehend that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car."

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.

A man who had unluckily put unleaded in his diesel Greystones phoned us for help at the Shell filling station. He decided to fill up before proceeding on to the nearby holiday park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put unleaded instead of diesel and it wasn't a good start to our holiday break." It was definitely no challenge in any way for our technical engineer to go along and perform the fuel drain. We hope everyone had a good holiday break.
