Wrong Fuel in Car Pontygwaith - Pontygwaith Misfuelling

What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a gloomy Saturday and I was on the way to help an elder sweetheart who put petrol in her diesel trusty BMW M Roadster in Pontygwaith. She told us that she had driven away from the filling station and pulled up in a backwater lane en route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I plugged her location into the TomTom and was on-scene inside 60 minutes. I arrived at the vehicle and removed the wrong fuel in the car car. Whilst I was doing it she said to me, "Now I'm becoming relatively absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the car using diesel as I'd only just bought it a few days ago right after my former one, which I'd had for more than twenty five years, inevitably stopped working". I finished the drain and she presented me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. Such a delightful Rhondda Cynon Taf woman!

We performed a wrong fuel retrieval job outside a beautiful residential home in Pontygwaith not so long ago. "I put unleaded in my diesel car and was able to nearly get home when my car broke down." Our specialist went out, regardless that it was rather late at night, and carried out a full fuel drain and purge on the green Range Rover Sport .

This was exactly an unsociable time to be up. It was roughly dawn and noone was stirring. It had been pretty uneventful thus far, and Brian and I were sitting about reading through a couple of old articles. This was an uncommon peaceful hour in Rhondda Cynon Taf. It was indeed so peaceful that when the phone rang it made me jump! The person explained: "I just ended my evening shift and foolishly put petrol in a well-used Volvo940 by mistake". I got him to let us know just where the car was and we left, getting to him in Pontygwaith under half an hour later. The wrong fuel was taken out from the motor and he said thank you for showing up so quickly. As we were returning home we spotted two young ladies on the edge of the highway who looked like they suffered a flat. Obviously we pulled over to help them change it, to their elation.

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.
