What a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Tuesday and we were on my way to assist an old lady after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel Cringles. I had been told she had driven away from the petrol station and was broken down in a rural road en route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got her location punched into the TomTom and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I arrived at the location and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. As I was doing the drain she said to me, "I am becoming fairly forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car needing diesel since I'd just purchased it several days back because my old car, which I had for more than 25 years, eventually died". I got the job completed and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. What a lovely lady!

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.
