It was after 6 pm on a Saturday and though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were sitting commenting on the rugby results, ready for the 8th job of the day to arrive. Before long we got a call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Llangennith and filled petrol in a diesel bright red Toyota RAV4 hire car. The unfortunate lady was somewhat troubled it seemed, telling me "I simply can't believe that I have messed up the car! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that things like this unfortunately can happen. She was able to get the car into a safe space and, seeing as it was just a few minutes from the office, we could arrive at the lady rather quickly. The bad fuel was extracted and she could return to the hotel she was lodging in. Even though we got pretty soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away calm and less anxious. One more fuel drain in Swansea done well in my opinion!

Wrong Fuel in Car Llangennith - Llangennith Misfuelling

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night's sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a rainy Saturday and I was on the way to assist an old sweetheart after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel sunflower yellow Volvo S70 in Llangennith. I'd been told she had driven away from the filling station and stranded in a backwater lane along the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I popped the location in the Satnav and arrived inside an hour. I reached the vehicle and drained the wrong fuel from the car. While I was doing the work she said, "I am getting fairly forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel seeing that I had just bought it a week back because my previous one, which I used for over thirty years, finally broke down". I got the drain completed and she gifted me a toffee and said thanks a lot. Such a pleasant Swansea woman!

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.
