On getting to your location

Once our mobile technician arrives, he will evaluate the situation before taking any action. If in the rare occasion he finds that the problem is not a case of having the wrong kind of fuel in the car, he will not proceed to do anything on the car and you will only be charged a minimal call out charge.

If the technician discovers that it is truly the case of wrong fuel then he will begin fixing it instantly as he already has the fresh fuel and the required tools to solve the problem. He will remove the mixed fuel, flush fuel system thoroughly and then fill it up with the fresh fuel priced at the same rate as at the petrol station. We also take all major debit and credit cards as we know your situation and hence there is no need to be worried if you are out of cash.

Other Services

You should also know that other than fixing your vehicle with wrong fuel, we provide other services related to fuel. To name one is getting rid of the contaminated fuel the proper and legal way. This is because your average mechanic is not authorized to do it nowadays because it can easily degrade the environment and even pollute the local water supply. We have all it takes to do so since we are not just accredited by the Environment Agency but also have the best devices for it.

We give this as a service in itself to both commercial and private clients. We can drain fixed or mobile tanks and also a wide variety of other containers, as long as we can reach them. Rest assured that we will empty out the contaminated fuel and dump it safely to the right regulations.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

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

One more thing which can cause similar symptoms 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 be added through its own separate tank and dosing system rather than added to the fuel tank.

But you don't have to worry since we can fix both problems for you by using the same procedure used in solving the issue of wrong 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 incorrect fuel, fuel contaminated with water, or even AdBlue contamination.

Talking of getting you on your way, if our mobile technician has been beavering away whilst you have been knowing more about our services, he is likely to be close to finishing now. In most situations it takes about thirty minutes to put things right and get our customers on their way.

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.
