Upon our arrival

First thing the mobile technician will do when he reaches you is to verify the problem. In the rare case that the problem isn’t incorrect fuel in your vehicle, they will know this before doing any more work, and only a minimal call out fee will be made.

Our technician will be bringing the required equipment and fresh fuel with him so if he learns that it is really the issue of wrong fuel, he will fix it on the spot. He will instantly remove mixed fuel and then change it out with fresh fuel, and we won’t ask you for extra on the fresh fuel.

Other Services

This could be of interest to you.

You might be thinking how else we might be of assistance to you.

At the end of the day, our technician will be carrying a tank-full of contaminated fuel they have drained from a few cars that will need to be disposed of. You aren’t allowed to dump such things these days as it will pollute waterways and have a harmful impact on the environment, and may even pollute the local water supply. We are completely equipped, and Environment Agency certified to safely get rid of contaminated fuel.

It is also a service that we provide separately to business and private clients at a fee. We can drain fixed or mobile tanks and also a wide variety of other containers, as long as we can get to them. We subsequently cart away the contaminated liquids and safely dispose of them in accordance with the laid down procedures and laws.

Contamination with AdBlue or Water

Putting the wrong fuel in your vehicle isn’t the only cause of engine problems. Such signs as insufficient power, irregular running, excessive smoke, and engine stalling may also be due to fuel that is contaminated with water. This is a serious problem that can completely damage the fuel filters.

The mistake of putting AdBlue into the fuel (AdBlue: a solution utilized to improve the cleanliness of engine exhausts) can also cause the above symptoms. Using AdBlue without any knowledge of how it should be refilled can make your vehicle behave abnormally. For correct operation of it, AdBlue should be added through its own separate tank and dosing system rather than added to the fuel tank.

Whether it's the problem of fuel contaminated by water or with AdBlue, we can solve it using similar procedure of draining, flushing, and refilling of the fuel system, which we generally use to solve the issue of incorrect fuel in a car. Whatever caused you to get stranded, we can assist you to get back on the road. Furthermore, we can replace the fuel filters damaged 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.
