It was just before 8 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless night, it had not given up on raining! Ryan and I were seated there discussing the weekend's football, at the ready for the 8th fuel drain to come in. Inevitably we had a call from a girl on a company trip who had gone to the Shell petrol garage in Caerphilly and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel old Isuzu i-Series rental car in error. She was somewhat distressed apparently, saying "I simply can't believe that I have messed up the car! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to worry, and also that things like this happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a protected position and, seeing that it was only a few minutes from the office, we were able to get to her quickly. The bad fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the motel she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away relaxed and much less concerned. One more job in Caerphilly well done in my opinion!

Wrong Fuel in Car Caerphilly - Caerphilly Misfuelling

Just had a great night's sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a warm Tuesday and I was on my way to help an elder lovely lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel mint condition Smart Forfour in Caerphilly. She informed us that she had left the petrol station and was broken down on a backwater road on the way to see her grandchildren. I plugged her location in the Satnav and arrived in less than 60 minutes. I turned up at the stricken lady and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. As I was doing the work she said to me, "I have been becoming somewhat absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle using diesel as I had just got it several days back right after my former car, which I owned for over thirty years, inevitably died on me". I finished the drain and she gave me a peppermint and said thanks. What a delightful Caerphilly woman!

A lady from Caerphilly with her children in her diesel expensive Nissan 350Z Roadster had put £40 of petrol at the filling station. She contacted us weeping and really upset as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel previously and didn't know what might happen to her vehicle because of it. We assured her that everything should be alright and that she would be in action very quickly. When we arrived she was still upset but as our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she noticed that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I simply can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Specifically with the kids in the back."

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.
