Wrong Fuel in Car Thorp Arch - Petrol in Diesel Car Thorp Arch

A lady with a full car of kids in her diesel Thorp Arch had put £42 of petrol at the Tesco petrol station. She called us crying and very worried as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel before and didn't know what might happen to her vehicle in doing so. We assured her that the vehicle should be alright and that she would be up and running soon. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but while our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon enough cheered up and was on her way saying, "I just can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Especially with the children in the back."



You may be suspecting the presence of incorrect fuel in your car or truck, but you are unsure. We have heard situations of customers having the same suspicions only for our technicians to realise a whole different problem. To avoid any doubt, try having the following signs of the wrong fuel in your fingertip. If the engine starts spluttering and begin running roughly, or if there is the production of too much smoke resulting in the low supply of power to the car making it stop then there is a high possibility that you have put the incorrect fuel in your vehicle.

We learn from experiences and mistakes so we shouldn't get too down so much once we deal with such scenarios since they make us more cautious and equip us with the appropriate mentality and skills on how to manage such problems in future. Engaging in mistakes like speeding, concentrating on different things and letting the autopilot do all of it especially when driving a vehicle that you are unfamiliar with for instance a borrowed or hired car is discouraged.

Contamination of fuel by water also results in the above symptoms.

A sputtering engine with low power and too much smoke from the exhaust with an eventual stop are also indicators of water contamination. It does not matter whether your vehicle utilizes diesel or petrol, water can also cause it to work roughly and ultimately stop. So you should also know about it.

A lot of modern diesel engines use AdBlue, a system that lowers the pollution of the engine. The amount of AdBlue added to your vehicle should be of appropriate ratio to avoid further problem. It's for this reason, AdBlue has a separate tank attached somewhere. If you get someone to directly add this to your tank without knowing the proper procedure, it's more likely to cause problem to your engine. The signs you will observe is just like what were stated above but don't worry we get it fixed. So the message is, ?if your engine splutters, smokes and stops, we can definitely help, and get you going again, whatever the cause?.

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.
