Nevertheless, if you were driving a car, and abruptly you notice that your car is emitting excessive smoke through the exhaust and your engine is sputtering abnormally while the car loses power slowly regardless of how much energy you are applying on the accelerator and eventually comes to a stop, then there is little doubt that you are facing an incorrect fuel in your vehicle issue.

This was what is called the graveyard shift. It was around sunrise and noone was about. It had become fairly dead until now, and Ray and I were relaxing browsing a few old articles. That was an unusual peaceful moment. It was in fact that quiet that the instant the telephone ultimately rang it made me start! The voice on the opposite end explained: "I finished my night shift and foolishly put petrol in a diesel Sharlston Common in error". I got him to inform us where the car was situated and we left, ending up less than 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the engine and he said thanks for coming so rapidly. While we were heading back home we spotted two young ladies on the side of the road who looked like they suffered a flat. As a result we got out to change it, much to their delight.

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.
