Did you Know

You might be wondering how else we might help you.

Once our mobile mechanic has emptied out the wrong fuel, they have a full tank of contaminated fuel which needs to be disposed of. You aren’t permitted to dump such things nowadays as it will contaminate waterways and have a detrimental impact on the environment, and may even pollute the local water supply. We are Environmental Agency Certified and have the necessary expertise and equipment to dispose of contaminated fuel.

Dumping contaminated fuel is a separate service we provide to our customers, either commercial or private businesses. If you are a customer looking for this service, all you should do is give us access to the fixed, mobile storage tank, or other container where it is kept, and be assured that we will empty them out and then get rid of the contaminated fuel in accordance with the security regulations in place.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

There are other causes of engine troubles apart from wrong fuel in a vehicle. 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 irreparable damage to fuel filters.

A diesel-powered car may also show such signs when someone puts AdBlue straight into the vehicle’s fuel tank. The correct way to add it is via a separate tank and automatic dosing system built into the vehicle.

In these situations, we can provide the services of draining the fuel, flushing the engine and refilling with clean fuel, like in the case of filling your tank with the wrong fuel. It does not matter what the cause is, we can get you back on your way. Furthermore, we can replace the fuel filters damaged by water.
