Wrong Fuel in Car The Herberts - The Herberts Misfuelling

What a good night's sleep! 7:30 on a bright Tuesday and I was on the way to help an elder lady who had put petrol in her diesel metallic blue Cadillac STS-V in The Herberts. I had been told she had left the filling station forecourt and was pulled up in a backwater lane on the way to visit her godchildren. I punched her location straight into the TomTom and was with her inside an hour. I arrived at the stricken lady and drained the wrong fuel out of the car. As I was doing the drain she explained, "I am getting rather absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car using diesel as I had only just purchased it several days ago right after my other one, which I had for over 30 years, inevitably died". I finished the drain and she gave me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. What a delightful The Vale of Glamorgan 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.
