The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!




Upon arrival

Upon arrival, our experienced technician will first check out your vehicle to make sure that it is the problem of incorrect fuel in the car. And if it is not, he won't drain it but will just ask you for a nominal amount.

If the technician discovers that it is truly the case of wrong fuel then he will begin fixing it immediately as he already has the fresh fuel and the required tools to fix the problem. He will remove the mixed fuel, flush fuel system thoroughly and then fill it with the fresh fuel priced at the same rate as at the petrol station. We are aware that you might not be having enough money with you, but you don’t need to worry since we accept any common debit or credit card thus you can use them to pay.

AdBlue and Water Contamination

You should also pay attention to the fact that wrong fuel is not the only issue which makes the engine run in an abnormal manner, but sometimes the presence of water in the fuel can also make your vehicle produce too much smoke, stop, lack power, or run irregularly. But water can do a lot of damage which is irreparable, such as damaging the fuel filter which doesn't necessarily happen in the event of wrong fuel.

Putting AdBlue in the fuel tank can also make your vehicle to exhibit similar symptoms. This additive which is utilized to purify the emissions of your engine should only be added through its own separate tank and automatic dosing system inbuilt into the car rather than directly into a fuel tank of a diesel engine. Hence if someone who is not aware of this procedure tries to add it to the fuel, it will result in engine trouble.

Still, there's no need to worry. Whatever engine problem you have, whether contaminated fuel with water or AdBlue, we can definitely help you. By applying the same process of draining and flushing the fuel system as used in solving the issue of wrong fuel in the car, we can enable you to get back on the road. Besides that, if the damage has extended to your fuel filters, we can change them out on the spot. You don't have to call for another provider to do that.

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.
