It was about five pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it had not stopped raining! Brian and I were resting talking over the tennis, at the ready for the 8th fuel drain that day to come in. Finally we had a call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Hinckley and filled petrol in her diesel baby blue Toyota Highlander lease car. The poor thing was somewhat troubled it seemed, crying "I can't believe I have destroyed the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had forgot I was running a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that things like this sadly do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a protected position and, as it was no more than a few minutes away from the office, we were able to find her rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the Travelodge she was living at. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive home contented and not so anxious. One more misfuel correction in Leicestershire done well in my books!

This was exactly the graveyard shift. It was close to 2 in the morning and almost noone was around. It was pretty uneventful up to now, and me and Ryan were loafing around perusing a number of old newspapers. This was an unusual quiet hour in Leicestershire. Actually it was indeed that tranquil that when the phone inevitably rang I jumped! The motorist on the opposite end explained: "I finished my night shift and stupidly poured petrol in my diesel matte black Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 by mistake". I got him to inform us where the vehicle was and we headed out, reaching him in Hinckley under 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the car and he said thank you for showing up so promptly. As we were heading back home we found two young women at the side of the highway who seemed to have a flat tyre. As a result we pulled over and helped them 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 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.
