It was close to 5 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a dry afternoon, it had not ceased pouring! Mark and me were relaxing talking about the recent rugby rankings, at the ready for the next telephone call to arrive. In due time we had the phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Llanblethian and put petrol in a diesel classic Audi Q5 hire car. She was rather affected it seemed, stating "I still cannot believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to fret, also that these things sadly do happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a secure position and, seeing that it was just a short distance off from where we were, we were able to arrive at the lady rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to go home to the hotel she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got pretty soaked, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home contented and a lot less concerned. One more fuel drain in The Vale of Glamorgan done well in my mind!

Wrong Fuel in Car Llanblethian - Llanblethian Misfuelling
What a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a rainy Saturday and I was off to help an old lady after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel beautiful Volvo S70 in Llanblethian. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station and was stranded along a rural road along the way to visit her grandchildren. I got her location plugged into the TomTom and was on-scene inside 60 minutes. I turned up at the location and extracted the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. As I was working she told me, "I have been becoming fairly absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car taking diesel since I had only just purchased it several days back because my previous car, which I had had for over 30 years, eventually gave up the ghost". I got the job completed and she offered me a peppermint and said thank you. Such a lovely The Vale of Glamorgan woman!

He had it drained and had it running once again in less than thirty minutes. Highly recommended."

This was what is called an unsociable time to be on the road. It was close to 2am and noone was stirring. It had become fairly uneventful so far, and me and Paul were loafing around perusing a few old papers. That was an unusual peaceful moment in The Vale of Glamorgan. Actually it was so relaxing that when the phone rang I jumped! The voice told me: "I've completed my night shift and incredibly filled the wrong fuel in the diesel red Volkswagen Jetta in error". We instructed him to inform us exactly where the vehicle was situated and we left, arriving in Llanblethian not as much as half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleared from the vehicle. He said thanks a lot for coming out so rapidly. While we were going back to the depot we noticed two ladies on the edge of the highway who appeared to have a flat. As a result we got out to help them change it, much to their delight.

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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
