The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!




Upon arrival

Once our skilled technician reaches your vehicle he will assess your vehicle to verify if it is truly the case of incorrect fuel in the vehicle. And if it isn't he will not need to do the drain and will just charge you a nominal fee.

Assuming it is the wrong fuel in your vehicle 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 simply charge the current pump prices. We are quite considerate when it’s time to make the payment, we know this is an emergency situation for you so we do not insist on cash but allow all the major debit and credit cards.

Other Services

We also provide other services besides fixing the problem of wrong fuel

We also give other services to our clients after dealing with the matter of wrong fuel, such as disposal of contaminated fuel. The contaminated fuel shouldn't be disposed of by anyone unqualified, but by an expert in this industry because fuel disposal incorrectly done can pollute the water supply and damage the surroundings. You should allow us to do it for you since we are not only authorized by the Environment Agency but also capable of doing it in the right way, both legally and safely.

We give this as a service in itself to both commercial and private customers. All you need to do is give us access, and it won’t matter if it is in a fixed storage tank, mobile storage tank or other container, we will drain it. We can then take away the contaminated liquids, and dispose of them safely to the relevant regulations.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

Apart from wrong fuel, water can also cause similar symptoms, such as the production of a lot of smoke, a rough running of the engine, signs of no power and stalling. Hence you should also suspect it. But water can do a lot of damage which is irreparable, like damaging the fuel filter which doesn't necessarily happen in the event of wrong fuel.

Yet another thing which can cause similar symptoms is putting AdBlue directly into the fuel tank. AdBlue contamination can also occur if it is used by someone who has no knowledge on how or where it should be added. Hence, it should just be utilized by somebody who is aware that it should be added to its own tank instead of being added directly to the fuel.

But you do not have to worry since we can fix both issues for you by applying the same procedure used in solving the matter of wrong fuel. We are always there to fix your vehicle 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.

Don’t be worried about waiting for long considering that our mobile mechanic will reach you as quickly as possible whilst you go through our services and information, and he should be with you not long from now. In most situations it takes about 30 minutes to put things right and get our clients on their way.

We know that the day has been really stressful, but we do hope that we have helped you stay relieved and allowed you to carry on with the journey with ease.

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.
