Upon our arrival

The first thing the mobile mechanic will do when he reaches you is to check the problem. In the rare case that the problem isn’t incorrect fuel in your car, they will know this before doing any more work, and just a nominal call out charge will be made.

If the technician discovers that it is really the case of wrong fuel then he will start fixing it instantly as he already has the fresh fuel and the necessary tools to solve the problem. He will drain out the mixed fuel, flush the fuel system, and replenish the tank with fresh fuel priced just the same as that charged in the petrol station. We are aware that you might not be carrying enough cash with you, but you don’t need to worry since we take any common debit or credit card thus you can make use of them to pay.

AdBlue and Water Contamination

Fuel system mixed with water can make the engine of your vehicle behave terribly. It will make it exhibit the same signs as the wrong fuel in a car, such as low power, irregular running, production of too much smoke and even stalling. This case of water contamination can extend its damage to the fuel filters.

.Addition of AdBlue straight into the fuel tank of a diesel engine also causes same symptoms. The correct way to add it is via a separate tank and automatic dosing system built into the car.

But you can relax if you experience any of the above issues since we can flush the system just like in the case of incorrect fuel. We are always there to fix your car and get you back on the road no matter if it is a problem of the wrong fuel, fuel contaminated with water, or even AdBlue contamination.

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.
