A rather alarmed motorist phoned us from the BP petrol station to inform us that he put unleaded into his diesel Seacroft; he wasn't really certain how he'd done it. We told him it was not a worry and rapidly had our man out to him to drain the wrong fuel from his tank. Having removed the contaminated fuel, he was subsequently back driving. He told us; "I can't believe I put the wrong fuel in my car. And the gentleman who was sent to take care of the fuel drain was very excellent - he didn't make me look an idiot."

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:

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.

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.
