It was around 8 pm on a Tuesday and although we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Paul and me were relaxing talking about the weekend's golf results, at the ready for the 6th telephone call that day to come in. Inevitably we got a call from a girl on a business excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling garage in Llangan and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel mustard yellow Smart Fortwo hire car by mistake. The poor lady was quite troubled it seemed, telling me "I still cannot believe that I've wrecked the car! I am so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to worry, plus that such things sadly can happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a safe space and, since it was just a few miles off from us, we could find the woman rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained and she was able to return to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive home calm and a lot less concerned. Another misfuel correction in The Vale of Glamorgan well done in my books!

Wrong Fuel in Car Llangan - Llangan Misfuelling

Just had a fantastic night's sleep! 7:30 on a bright Saturday and we were off to assist an older sweetheart who had put petrol in her diesel compact Honda Ridgeline in Llangan. I had been informed she had left the filling station and pulled up on a rural road on the way to see her family. I popped the location into the Satnav and was with her in less than an hour. I got to the stricken lady and removed the contaminated fuel from the car. As I was doing it she explained, "I'm getting relatively absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car using diesel because I had just got it several days ago after my former one, which I had for about 30 years, inevitably died on me". I got the drain done and she presented me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. Such a precious The Vale of Glamorgan woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car Llangan - Petrol in Diesel Car Llangan

Now I'm not actually that hot for carrying out work weekends, and a week ago was the same. I had only just departed home filled with a magnificent roast prepared for me by the better half, and I was off to deal with a man because he filled the incorrect petrol in his precious Hyundai Genesis Coupe. He was somewhere in Llangan and so I was there soon. Just as I pulled up right behind the car and started work he told me "Praise the Lord! I had my concentration on stuff and failed to perceive I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Have I brought on any harm through starting it?" I determined generally there should not be damage and that I'd drain the contaminated fuel at once. Needless to say I removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle and filled it with some correct fuel, and then one more delighted customer was able to continue on their ride without the hassle. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and this makes operating on weekends in The Vale of Glamorgan a tiny bit less painful for me!

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.
