Upon our arrival
The first thing the mobile technician will do when he gets to you is to assess 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 minimal call out charge will be made.
Our technician will be carrying the necessary equipment and fresh fuel with him so if he discovers that it is actually the problem of wrong fuel, he will fix it on the spot. He will take away the mixed fuel, flush fuel system thoroughly and then fill it with the fresh fuel priced at the same rate as at the petrol station. You also don't need to worry if you don't have enough money with you, we know your situation and we will take any major debit or credit card.
AdBlue and Water Contamination
If your fuel system has water in it, irregularities of behavior will start to be shown by your engine. 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 coming 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 changed.
Another thing which can cause same signs is putting AdBlue directly into the fuel tank. AdBlue contamination can also take place if it is used by somebody who has no know-how on how or where it should be added. For correct operation of it, AdBlue should only be added through its own separate tank and dosing system rather than added to the fuel tank.
We extend our service to you whatever it maybe: whether it's an AdBlue issue or fuel contaminated with water. We can get you back to your journey after we carry out the same procedure as fixing an engine with wrong fuel. Works include draining and flushing, then, priming with fresh fuel. Additionally, we can help you replace the fuel filters damaged by water contamination so you don’t have to worry about them.
Other Services
Other than wrong fuel in the car, we also deliver other services related to it. You should also know about them. To name one is getting rid of the contaminated fuel the right and lawful way. This is because your average mechanic is not allowed to do it these days because it can quickly degrade the environment and even contaminate the local water supply. Not only we are certified by the Environment Agency, we also have the best tools for discarding contaminated fuel.
Dumping contaminated fuel is a separate service we provide to our customers, either commercial or private companies. 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.
Just wait for a moment and we'll be there. But if a few minutes is still too long for you to wait, you may redirect your attention through browsing other services that we provide. For sure we'll arrive imminently. Once the technician has started his work, he'll simply need about 30 minutes to get the work done and get you back on the road.
In some situations, wrong fuel in a car can cause additional issues such as a flat battery and the existence of air in the fuel system. But our skilled technicians also have the tools and abilities to put everything right and get you on your way.

Wrong Fuel in Car Coldred - Petrol in Diesel Car Coldred
This really was what we call the graveyard shift. It was about sunrise and almost noone was around. It had been rather dead so far, and me and Ryan were sitting browsing a couple of old articles. It was an uncommon tranquil moment. Actually it was in fact so peaceful that the instant the telephone inevitably rang it made me jump! The customer told me: "I've finished my overnight shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in my diesel Coldred". I told him to let us know where exactly he was and we left, reaching him only half an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the vehicle. He said thanks for getting there so fast. As we were coming back home we saw two ladies at the side of the highway who looked like they suffered a flat. As a result we stopped and helped them change it, to their delight.
