On arrival of the mechanic at your car

The first thing that our mobile mechanic will do when he reaches you is to check your vehicle with the aim of verifying if it is actually the issue of wrong fuel. If the finding is negative, no services will be done on fixing the suspected wrong fuel in a vehicle. You won't be charged for the quoted services, instead, a call out charge will be asked of you.

Our technician will be carrying the required equipment and fresh fuel with him so if he discovers that it is actually the problem of wrong fuel, he will fix it on the spot. He will take away 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 carrying enough money with you, but you don’t have to worry because we accept any common debit or credit card thus you can make use of them to pay.

Contamination with Water and AdBlue

Putting the wrong fuel in your vehicle isn’t the only reason for engine problems. The presence of water in your fuel also makes your vehicle to show similar symptoms, which include: lack of power, trouble running, production of excess smoke and even stalling. This is a serious issue that can completely cause harm to the fuel filters.

The mistake of putting AdBlue into the fuel (AdBlue: a solution used to enhance the cleanliness of engine exhausts) can also cause the above signs. AdBlue contamination can also occur if it is used by someone who has no knowledge on how or where it should be added. Hence, it should just be used by someone who is aware that it should be added to its own tank rather than being added directly to the fuel.

But you can relax if you experience any of the above issues since we can flush the system just like in the case of incorrect fuel. So, if your problem is wrong fuel, water contaminated fuel, damaged fuel filters or AdBlue into the wrong tank, don’t worry, we can fix it for you thus enabling you to carry on with your journey.

Other Services

Apart from draining out the wrong fuel in a car, we deliver other services related to that. To name one is disposing of the contaminated fuel the proper and lawful way. This is because your average mechanic is not permitted to do it these days because it can quickly degrade the environment and even contaminate the local water supply. Not only we are certified by the Environment Agency, we also have the best tools for disposing contaminated fuel.

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.

This was what is called an unsociable time to be on the road. It was close to 2am and noone was around. It had become pretty dead thus far, and Ryan and I were relaxing looking through a few old magazines. It was a rare quiet hour. It was in fact that quiet that the instant the telephone eventually rang I leaped! The voice on the opposite end stated: "I have just concluded my overnight shift and incredibly filled the wrong fuel in a Pettings by mistake". We told him to tell us just where the vehicle was located and we headed out, reaching him not as much as an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was taken out from the motor. He said thanks for coming out so quickly. As we were heading back to the depot we spotted two young women on the side of the road who looked like they suffered a puncture. Obviously we pulled over to change it, to their elation.
