Wrong Fuel Assist Pagham - Wrong Fuel in Car Pagham

I had appreciated a great afternoon golfing on my off day and felt cheerful with myself the next working day as I set off to assist a new couple on vacation in Pagham. They conked out after adding the wrong fuel in their dark green Cadillac Eldorado, and the car was approximately an hour's travel away. I emerged at their car and smirked as I listened to the wife telling her partner off for turning out to be so stupid. "Exactly how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this takes place on daily basis in West Sussex and that it is absolutely nothing to worry about, and yet he all the same had an earful by his better half. Unfortunate chap. At any rate, I extracted all the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some proper fuel. As they drove down the road I shouted good bye and wondered what her indoors would do to me in the event that I made the exact same error... I'd never live it down!

It can't be fun conking out in a car full of the improper fuel halfway down the street. Our most recent customer who filled her car with the wrong fuel (new Skoda Fabia) in Pagham encountered exactly that crisis: "WrongFuelSOS.com's fuel drain guy helped me to move my motor from the road. He had it drained and had it working again in less than thirty-five minutes. Couldn't recommend you more."

This was most definitely an unsociable time to be up. It was roughly 2:30 in the morning and noone was about. It was pretty uneventful up to now, and Ryan and I were loafing around reading through several old papers. This was an uncommon calm hour in West Sussex. Actually it was in fact that calm that the instant my mobile eventually rang it made me start! The person explained: "I have just ended my night shift and stupidly put petrol in my green Austin Mini by mistake". We told him to inform us exactly where the vehicle was located and we set off, reaching him in Pagham an hour or so later. The fuel was taken out from the car. He thanked us for coming so fast. While we were returning to the office we noticed two young women on the side of the highway who looked like they suffered a flat tyre. Accordingly we stopped and helped 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 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.
