On arrival of the mechanic at your car

The very first task that our technician will do once he arrives at your place is to confirm if the issue you reported via our customer care is correct or not - misfuelling. If it is not, he won’t render any service related to the incorrect fuel in the car, and in that case, you won’t be charged the quoted price but an updated amount.

If the technician finds out that it is really the case of wrong fuel then he will begin fixing it right away as he already has the fresh fuel and the necessary equipment to fix the problem. He will right away remove mixed fuel and then change it with fresh fuel, and we won’t charge you extra on the fresh fuel. You also don't need to fret if you don't have enough money with you, we know your situation and we will accept any major credit or debit card.

Other Services

Are you aware that we provide other services too?

We also offer other services to our clients after solving the matter of wrong fuel, such as disposal of contaminated fuel. The contaminated fuel shouldn't be disposed of by anyone unqualified, but by an expert in this industry because fuel disposal incorrectly done can pollute the water supply and damage the surroundings. You should allow us to do it for you since we are not only certified by the Environment Agency but also capable of doing it in the right way, both legally and safely.

Disposing of the contaminated fuel is a different service that we deliver to our private and commercial customers at some fee. As long as we have access to its fixed storage tank, mobile storage tank or containers, we can properly dispose of the contaminated liquids at the designed areas.

Contamination with AdBlue or Water

Fuel system mixed with water can make the engine of your vehicle behave badly. Symptoms cited above for an engine with the wrong 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 damaged. But with water contamination, it should be replaced.

AdBlue if added improperly it can also exhibit similar signs in your car. This additive which is used 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 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 result 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 incorrect fuel in your vehicle. It does not matter what the cause is, we can get you back on your way. We can also replace those fuel filters damaged by water.

We'll be there in no time. 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. Then, give our technician around 30 minutes to work on your engine problem. You'll be back on the road soon.

Our mobile technicians are fully skilled and equipped to sort all the issues connected to filling your car with the incorrect fuel, such as a flat battery or air locks in the fuel system. They ensure that everything is fully rectified and you can safely get on the road again.

It is our hope that despite the stressful experience you have had today we have reduced the inconvenience you suffered and have managed to put you back on the road and on your way to where you need to be.

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.
