First thing the mobile mechanic will do when he reaches you is to check the problem. And if he discovers that it is not the issue of incorrect fuel in the vehicle, he won’t drain it unnecessarily, and you will only be charged an updated amount which is not equal to the cost of wrong fuel in a car.
Signs of vehicle irregularities stated above are an indication that your vehicle has been pumped with wrong fuel. Since we carry the necessary tools and fresh fuel, we can fix that issue straight away wherever you are. These three reasons should convince you why we should serve you. Our mobile mechanics are equipped with the best skills and tools in draining out the wrong fuel and changing it with fresh fuel. One other reason is our charges for the fuel replacement is the same as the current price in your nearby petrol station. The last reason is the method of payment. We take other forms of payment like credit or debit cards if in case you don't have cash with you.
Contamination with AdBlue or Water
You should also take note of the fact that incorrect fuel is not the only problem which makes the engine run in an abnormal manner, but sometimes the presence of water in the fuel can also make your car produce too much smoke, stop, lack power, or run irregularly. But you must also note that water can cause other serious damages such as damage to fuel filters.
You can also observe the same symptoms if AdBlue is added int the diesel tank. AdBlue is a cleaner that helps the engine of your car to be more eco-friendly. However, if this is added straight to your fuel tank, it will most likely to cause more trouble than good. That's why it should have a separate tank and the dosing should be automated. If added manually, this should be carried out by someone who knows the correct place to put it.
In both of the cases above, we can offer the same fuel system draining, flushing and refilling service as we do if you put the wrong fuel in your car. So, regardless of what the cause we can get you on your way. As we deal with your fuel trouble, we can also replace water damaged fuel filters.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Knox Bridge - Fuel Rescue Knox Bridge
It was about ten pm on a Friday and while we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were resting there going over the recent tennis, ready for the 8th telephone call of the day to come in. Inevitably we had a phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the BP petrol garage and filled petrol in a diesel Knox Bridge hire car. The poor lady was somewhat agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I just can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that things like this happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a secure position and, as it was just a few miles from where we were, we were able to find the lady rather quickly. The wrong fuel was drained and she could go home to the Travelodge she was staying in. Although we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off relaxed and much less worried. A job well done in my mind!
