Wrong Fuel in Car Newsholme - Petrol in Diesel Car Newsholme

It was around ten pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and me were seated there talking about the weekend's rugby rankings, ready for the sixth call to arrive. In due time we received a call from a lady on a business trip who had gone to the BP filling garage and filled petrol in her diesel Newsholme rental car in error. The unfortunate thing was pretty distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I can not believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to worry, plus that these things unfortunately can happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a secure spot and, since it was just a few minutes off from our van, we were able to reach the customer swiftly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact we got fairly drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home satisfied and not so concerned. One more job well done in my opinion!

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 anywhere in West Yorkshire to 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.
