Upon our arrival

If in the rare occasion he finds that the problem is not a case of having the incorrect kind of fuel in the car, he will not proceed to do anything on the vehicle and you will only be charged a minimal call out charge.

Assuming it is the wrong fuel in your car as usually is the case, our technicians have all the tools on board and know-how to drain your vehicle's fuel system, flush it out and refill it with good clean fuel of the correct type. We don’t demand crazy prices for the fresh fuel either, we just ask for the present pump prices. We are quite considerate when it’s time to make the payment, we know this is an urgent situation for you so we do not insist on cash but allow all the major debit and credit cards.

Other Services

This could be of interest to you.

You might be wondering how else we might help you.

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. These days, such fuel must be dumped appropriately since pouring it out might contaminate the environment and the local water supply. We are Environmental Agency Certified and have the necessary know-how and tools to dump contaminated fuel.

It is also a service that we deliver separately to commercial and private clients at a fee. All you should do is give us access, and it won’t matter if it is in a fixed storage tank, mobile storage tank or any other container, we will drain it. We can then get rid of the contaminated liquids, and dump them properly to the relevant regulations.

.Addition of AdBlue into the fuel tank of a diesel engine also causes same symptoms. This can be done so by adding it to its own separate tank and dosing system which is inbuilt into the vehicle.

But don’t fret as regardless of whether it is a problem of contaminated fuel due to water or AdBlue, we are still able to help you. We can get you back to your journey after we do the same procedure as fixing an engine with wrong fuel. Works include draining and flushing, then, priming with fresh fuel. Additionally, we can assist you replace the fuel filters damaged by water contamination so you don’t have to worry about them.

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.

A man called us to state that he foolishly pumped unleaded in his diesel Fordwich. "What a nightmare! How could I put the wrong fuel in my nice diesel car!" It took our engineer around fifty minutes to fully drain the wrong fuel from the car. He totally cleaned the fuel lines, filter and pumps and then put clean diesel in the vehicle. The customer was completely satisfied and it hadn't cost him dealer rates to have the work professionally completed.
