Most probably, you're having a difficult day that's why you are here and reading this. The problem is something we come across on a daily basis and should be solved immediately. So let's set your mind at ease. We can guarantee that you have come to the perfect place. You won't go wrong because we have been in the business for a long time already. The clients we have served who had a similar problem as yours can back our claims.

We know that you are either:

1. Stranded inside your car parked near a petrol station, petrified of turning it over since it has come to your attention that you just pumped the incorrect fuel into it.
2. Sitting inside the car by the roadside traumatized by the odd spluttering, stalling, dense smoke and sudden jerking to a stop.

After that frightful moment, it has eventually dawned on you that you put the incorrect fuel in your vehicle. Now, one of these usual reasons may explain why you are in this situation: you were possibly in a hurry, not focusing or you are driving a vehicle you are not familiar with.

You are probably wondering about what to do next:

But you don't have to be troubled since you should know that we are professionals in this industry. The only thing you need to do is follow the following points, starting with attempting to remain calm. Relax knowing that your car will be sorted as quickly as possible by our experienced technicians.

The next point is to not worry too much about your engine, especially whether it's already ruined or not. This is because in all situations of incorrect fuel we have handled we have been able to fix 99.8% successfully right there where the car is parked.

Another very important reminder, if you are on a blind bend, motorway or summit of the road, ensure that you are in a secure area. You and your passengers, if there are any, should get out of the car and stay on the side of the road you think is the safest. Ensure that any pets are locked inside the car. This will help secure other drivers and the pet from unanticipated occurrences.

Fourthly, give us a call once you are safe. You will be answered by a friendly employee who will ask you a few questions before providing you a quotation for the repair.

On arrival of the technician at your car

First thing that our mobile technician will do when he reaches you is to inspect your car with the aim of confirming if it is actually the issue of wrong fuel. If it is not, he won’t render any service linked to the wrong fuel in the vehicle, and in that case, you won’t be charged the quoted fee but an updated amount.

If, as it is in most cases, it is an issue of having the wrong fuel in the car, our technician is fully equipped and knowledgeable to drain out the fuel, flush the system and fill the vehicle with the correct kind of fuel. We don’t demand crazy prices for the fresh fuel either, we just charge the present pump prices. We are quite considerate when it’s time to make the payment, we know this is an emergency situation for you so we do not insist on cash but allow all the major debit and credit cards.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

Contamination of fuel by water is another problem which can make your vehicle function badly. Symptoms mentioned above for an engine with the incorrect fuel can also be noticed if the fuel system has water in it. This includes low power, lots of smoke appearing out of the exhaust, irregularities on how the car runs and even failing to run at all. In cases of wrong fuel, the fuel filter won't be affected. But with water contamination, it should be replaced.

You can also notice the same signs if AdBlue is added int the diesel tank. This additive which is utilized to purify the emissions of your engine should only be added through its own separate tank and automatic dosing system inbuilt into the car rather than straight into a fuel tank of a diesel engine. If this is added into the fuel tank by somebody who knows nothing of AdBlue, the outcome would be not good for the engine.

In both of the cases above, we can provide you with the same fuel system draining, flushing and refilling service as we do if you put the wrong fuel in your car. Whatever caused you to get stranded, we can help you to get back on the road. As we deal with your fuel issue, we can also replace water damaged fuel filters.

Other Services

This could be of interest to you.

You might also wish to know if we provide other services besides solving the problem of wrong fuel.

At the end of the day, our technician will be carrying a tank-full of contaminated fuel they have drained from several cars that will need to be disposed of. Nowadays, there is a serious concern that such fuel could seriously damage the environment or even pollute the water supply so you are not allowed to casually dump it anywhere. We are completely equipped, and Environment Agency certified to safely dump contaminated fuel.

To our customers in the private or commercial sector, we offer this service of disposing contaminated fuel separately. If you have a private firm and in need of our service, we only need full access to your tank, either fixed or mobile or other types of container. We will then do the rest of the job in accordance to the environmental law specified.

We'll be there quickly. If you were already growing impatient as you go through our services, you can rest be assured that we will be with you as soon as possible. Once the technician has started his work, he'll only need about 30 minutes to get the work done and get you back on the road.

Rest assured also that we also handle other issues resulting from wrong fuel, such as the existence of air in the fuel system or even a low battery, and that we have the skills and equipment to make it right.

Thus, if you had started feeling stressed due to the issue of wrong fuel, at least you're now relieved and ready to proceed with your journey as if nothing had happened.

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 Kent 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.
