Wrong Fuel in Car Ely - Ely Misfuelling

Ahhh, that was a quality night of sleep! It was 7:00 on a gloomy Wednesday and we were off to help an old lady who put petrol in her diesel khaki green Ford Fiesta in Ely. She told us that she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was stranded along a backwater lane en route to see her grandchildren. I got the location plugged in the TomTom and got there within 60 minutes. I arrived at the location and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the car. While I was doing the work she explained, "Now I'm becoming quite forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car working with diesel seeing that I'd just bought it a couple of days ago when my other car, which I had had for about thirty years, finally died". I got the job completed and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. Such a pleasant Cardiff woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car Ely - Petrol in Diesel Car Ely

A teen who had recently got his licence had wrong fuelled his dark green Toyota Sequoia by having unleaded in his diesel at the filling station near Ely. He said, "This is just the second time I have fuelled my car since I paid for it and I have no clue of how to proceed." He was also anxious since his step father had just purchased him the car. He discovered us on the net and so called it immediately, scared about what he should do.

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.
