After arrival

Upon arrival, our skilled technician will first inspect your vehicle to make sure that it is the problem of wrong fuel in the car. And if it is not, he won't drain it but will only ask you for a nominal amount.

If it is actually the issue of wrong fuel in a car, our mechanic will solve it instantly since he carries the tools for flushing out the wrong fuel and refilling the tank with the correct fuel. We don’t charge crazy prices for the fresh fuel either, we simply ask for the current pump prices. We also know that you may not be carrying enough money with you hence you should know that we also take any major credit card or debit card payments.

Contamination with Water and AdBlue

There are other causes of engine problems apart from wrong fuel in a car. Fuel contaminated with water will also cause very similar signs of lack of power, irregular running, excessive smoke and stalling. Water is also likely to cause permanent damage to fuel filters.

A diesel-powered car may also show such symptoms when someone puts AdBlue directly into the vehicle’s fuel tank. The correct way to add it is via a separate tank and automatic dosing system built into the vehicle.

But you can relax if you experience any of the above problems since we can flush the system just like in the case of wrong fuel. So, if your issue 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 carry on 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 and 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.

What a good night's sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a rainy Sunday and I was on the way to assist an old woman who put contaminated fuel in her diesel Dungate. I had been informed she had left the petrol station and stranded in a rural road en route to pay a visit to her family. I got the location punched into the TomTom and was with her inside an hour or so. I reached the destination and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she said to me, "I have been becoming somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel seeing that I had only got it a few days ago when my old car, which I had used for more than 30 years, finally died on me". I completed the drain and she presented me a peppermint and said thank you. What a lovely woman!
