Once we arrive

First thing the mobile mechanic will do when he reaches you is to verify the problem. In the rare case that the problem isn’t incorrect fuel in your vehicle, they will recognize this prior to doing any more work, and just a nominal call out charge will be made.

The above signs are usually an indication of incorrect fuel in a car and if we figure out that yours is the same problem, we will deal with it quickly since our mechanics bring the necessary equipment and fresh fuel with them. There are three main reasons why you should choose us. The first reason is that we have the skills to empty out the incorrect fuel and replace it with the right fuel. One other reason is our charges for the fuel replacement is the same as the current price in your closest gas station. The last reason is the method of payment. We accept other kinds of payment like debit or credit cards if in case you don't have cash with you.

Contamination with AdBlue or Water

Fuel system mixed with water can make the engine of your car behave badly. It will make it exhibit similar signs as the wrong fuel in the car, such as low power, irregular running, production of too much smoke and even stalling. In cases of wrong fuel, the fuel filter won't be affected. But with water contamination, it should be changed.

AdBlue if added improperly it can also exhibit the same signs in your car. This additive which is utilized to purify the emissions of your engine should just be added through its own separate tank and automatic dosing system inbuilt into the vehicle rather than directly into a fuel tank of a diesel engine. Hence if somebody who is not aware of this process tries to add it to the fuel, it will result in engine trouble.

If you are faced with either of these two problems then you shouldn't feel worried because we can handle both of these issues utilizing the same process we use in cases of wrong fuel contamination. So, if your problem is wrong fuel, water contaminated fuel, damaged fuel filters or AdBlue into the wrong tank, don’t worry, we can fix it for you thus allowing you to continue with your journey.

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.
