It was before 7 pm on a Thursday and even though we were assured a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and I were seated commenting on the weekend's tennis, waiting for the 8th fuel drain of the day to arrive. Finally we had a call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Bentham and put the wrong fuel in a diesel metallic yellow Jaguar S-Type rental by mistake. She was rather troubled it seemed, crying "I simply cannot believe that I've wrecked the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car that I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to worry, plus that things like this unfortunately often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure position and, as it was just a few miles away from us, we could reach the customer swiftly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to go home to the motel she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away contented and not so apprehensive. A misfuel correction in North Yorkshire well done in my books!

We completed a wrong fuel removal job near a spectacular residential home in Bentham not so long ago. "I had put petrol in my diesel car and managed to almost reach home when my car stopped." Our fuel drainer went out, regardless that it was quite late at night, and did a full fuel drain and purge on the spick and span Ford Ranger .

This was the graveyard shift. It was about sunrise and nobody was stirring. It was fairly quiet up to now, and Ryan and I were sitting about perusing a number of old magazines. It was a rare quiet hour in North Yorkshire. Actually it was in fact that relaxing that the instant my mobile ultimately rang it made me jump! The customer explained: "I have just ended my evening shift and stupidly filled petrol in the diesel bright red Audi RS 6 in error". I instructed him to tell us where the car was located and we hit the road, reaching him in Bentham less than 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was extracted from the car. He thanked us for coming so rapidly. As we were heading back home we saw two women at the edge of the road who seemed like they suffered a puncture. So we got out to change it, to their elation.

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 refuelled and they will often be able to give you a VA 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 misfuelled 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.
