Wrong Fuel Doctor Radford - Fuel Rescue Radford

What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a rainy Tuesday and we were off to help an old lady after she had put petrol in her diesel Radford. I'd been informed she drove away from the filling station and was pulled up along a backwater lane on the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got her location plugged into the Satnav and was on-scene within an hour or so. I reached the destination and extracted the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing it she told me, "I'm becoming rather absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel seeing that I'd only just purchased it a week back when my other car, which I owned for in excess of twenty five years, inevitably stopped working". I got the job completed and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. What a lovely 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 refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT 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 misfueled 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.
