Wrong Fuel Assist Heol-ddu - Wrong Fuel in Car Heol-ddu

I had a fantastic evening golfing on my holiday and was feeling delighted with myself the next day as I set off to help a new family who were on vacation in Heol-ddu. They broken down after adding petrol in their new-shape Mazda MX-3, and the car was roughly half an hour's drive away. I got there at their location and laughed while I heard to the gal telling off her spouse for turning out to be so stupid. "Just how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I tried to explain that this situation comes to pass on daily basis in Swansea and that it's really nothing to fret about, even so he still had an earful by his missus. I felt sorry for the chap. Anyways, I extracted the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive off I waved goodbye and thought about what my wife would say to me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!

A driver from Heol-ddu with a full car of kids in her diesel mom's BMW X3 had put £50 of petrol at the Co Op petrol station. She contacted us weeping and genuinely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and did not know what could happen to her car in doing so. We assured her that everything should be alright and that she would be on the road very quickly. When we got there she was still distressed but as our technician started work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she noticed that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She quickly cheered up and was up and running saying, "I just can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Particularly 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.
