It was just before six pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were relaxing there commenting on the footy rankings, at the ready for the 8th call to come in. Inevitably we got the call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Trallwn and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel maroon Mercedes SLK-Class rental car. The unfortunate lady was fairly affected apparently, crying "I can not believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to be concerned, also that these things do happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a safe spot and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance from the office, we could arrive at her almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to once again go back to the motel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got extremely soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive home calm and less apprehensive. A misfuel correction in Swansea done well in my books!

Wrong Fuel in Car Trallwn - Trallwn Misfuelling

Just had a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 on a bright Tuesday and I was on my way to help an older lovely lady who put petrol in her diesel grass green Peugeot 306 in Trallwn. She told us that she drove away from the filling station forecourt and was broken down in a country lane on route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got her location punched in the Satnav and got there in less than 60 minutes. I arrived at the car and removed the wrong fuel from the car. As I was doing the drain she told me, "I am becoming quite forgetful in my old age and forgot about the vehicle using diesel as I had only got it a few days ago when my other car, which I'd used for in excess of 30 years, finally stopped working". I completed the job and she gave me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a precious Swansea lady!

A gentleman rang us from his house on a street in Trallwn. He said, "My car (a navy blue Honda Civic) is not starting and is producing dreadful sounds when I flip the key." He admitted that he had put unleaded in his diesel car but then thought he would remedy the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, performed the fuel drain and filled him up once more with untainted Diesel. He said after that he would be absolutely sure to inform people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to get it cleaned out right away.

A motorist employed in Trallwn phoned us shortly after she tried to get her wrong fuelled vehicle to the office. She had put the wrong fuel in her diesel metallic grey Mercedes E-Class and, like many prior to her, assumed that she could simply top up her tank with diesel and it'd be fine. The engine was coughing and then it died when she got to the entrance of her work. We quickly started on the fuel drain following her call and had it fixed within an hour or so while she was in the office. She came out when we finished and thanked us saying, "I'm very glad you fixed my vehicle."

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.
