When we reach your vehicle

Once the mechanic is at your location and has access to your vehicle, his first job is to confirm whether the problem of your car is caused by wrong fuel or not. If the finding is negative, no services will be done on fixing the suspected incorrect fuel in a vehicle. You won't be charged for the quoted services, instead, a call out charge will be asked of you.

If our technician finds out that it is indeed the problem of incorrect fuel, he will start solving it quickly since he will have fresh fuel as well as the required equipment with him. He will drain out the mixed fuel, flush the fuel system, and refill the tank with fresh fuel priced the same as that charged in the petrol station. We are aware that you might not be having enough money with you, but you don’t need to worry because we accept any common debit or credit card thus you can make use of them to pay.

Other Services

We also deliver other services aside from fixing the problem of wrong fuel

We also offer other services to our clients after solving the issue of wrong fuel, such as disposal of contaminated fuel. The contaminated fuel should not be disposed of by anyone unqualified, but by a professional in this industry because fuel disposal incorrectly done can pollute the water supply and damage the environment. We are also professionals in this industry and are authorized by the Environment Agency that we have the equipment to use in getting rid of it, both safely and legally.

To our clients in the private or commercial sector, we offer this service of discarding contaminated fuel separately. If you have a private business and in need of our service, we only need full access to your tank, either fixed or mobile or other kinds of container. We will then do the rest of the job in accordance to the environmental law specified.

Contamination with Water and AdBlue

There are other causes of engine problems besides filling your car with the wrong fuel. The presence of water in your fuel also makes your vehicle to show similar signs, which include: lack of power, trouble running, production of excess smoke and even stalling. Water is also likely to cause irreparable damage to fuel filters.

A diesel-powered car may also show such symptoms when someone puts AdBlue straight into the vehicle’s fuel tank. This can be done so through adding it to its own separate tank and dosing system which is inbuilt into the car.

In these situations, we can provide the services of draining the fuel, flushing the engine and refilling with clean fuel, just like in the case of filling your tank with the wrong fuel. So, no matter what the cause we can get you on your way. We can also replace those fuel filters compromised by water.

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.
