Assuming it is the incorrect fuel in your vehicle as usually is the case, our technicians have all the tools on board and know-how to drain your vehicle's fuel system, flush it out and replenish it with nice clean fuel of the correct type. We don’t demand crazy prices for the fresh fuel either, we just charge the current pump prices. We are very considerate when it’s time to make the payment, we know this is an emergency situation for you so we do not insist on cash but allow all the major debit and credit cards.

AdBlue and Water Contamination

You should also pay attention to the fact that wrong fuel is not the only problem which makes the engine run in an abnormal way, but sometimes the presence of water in the fuel can also make your vehicle produce a lot of smoke, stop, lack power, or run irregularly. But unlike wrong fuel, water can cause more damage, such as permanent damage to the fuel filters.

AdBlue is a solution which is utilized get rid of hazardous gases from the engine's exhaust, and if it is put in the diesel tank then it can also cause similar issues. Using AdBlue without any knowledge of how it should be refilled can make your car 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.

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 vehicle. So, no matter what the cause we can get you on your way. Furthermore, we can replace the fuel filters damaged by water.

• 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.
