Wrong Fuel in Car Stembridge - Stembridge Misfuelling

Just had a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a bright Saturday and we were en route to assist an older woman after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel light blue Volvo XC90 in Stembridge. I had been informed she had left the filling station and pulled up along a country road on the way to visit her godchildren. I plugged the location straight into the TomTom and was with her inside an hour. I got to the vehicle and extracted the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing the work she said, "I'm getting fairly forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car using diesel because I'd just got it a short while ago after my old car, which I'd used for about twenty years, finally died on me". I completed the job and she presented me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. What a pleasant Swansea woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car Stembridge - Petrol in Diesel Car Stembridge

We did a wrong fuel removal job on the drive of a spectacular house in Stembridge a few weeks ago. "I put unleaded in my diesel car and was able to more or less arrive at home when my car stopped." Our technician went out, despite the fact that it was rather late at night, and performed a fuel drain and purge on the maroon Saab 9-4X .

This was certainly the graveyard shift. It was about dawn and hardly anyone was around. It was quite dead until now, and Ray and I were loafing reading through a couple of old newspapers. This was an uncommon calm moment in Swansea. It was that tranquil that when the phone finally rang it made me start! The motorist on the phone explained: "I've only just ended my overnight shift and foolishly filled petrol in my diesel metallic silver Kia Rio5 by mistake". We asked him to let us know where exactly the car was situated and we set off, getting to him in Stembridge less than 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the engine and he thanked us for coming so promptly. While we were returning home we found two women at the side of the road who seemed like they suffered a flat. So we stopped and helped them change it, 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:

  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.
