Once we arrive

Once our mobile mechanic arrives, he will assess the situation before taking any action. If in the rare occasion he finds that the problem is not a case of having the incorrect kind of fuel in the car, he will not proceed to do anything on the vehicle and you will just be charged a nominal call out charge.

Assuming it is the wrong fuel in your vehicle as usually is the case, our mechanics 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 charge crazy prices for the fresh fuel either, we just ask for the present pump prices. We also understand that you may not be carrying enough cash with you hence you should know that we also accept any major credit card or debit card payments.

Other Services

Other than wrong fuel in a vehicle, we also offer other services associated with it. You should also be familiar with them. To name one is disposing of the contaminated fuel the right and legal way. Getting rid of this contaminated fuel is not permitted to anyone unless you are certified to do so. If these fuels are thrown just anywhere, they could degrade the environment and possibly contaminate the local water supply. We have all it takes to do so since we are not just certified by the Environment Agency but also have the right devices for it.

Getting rid of contaminated fuel is another separate service that we offer to commercial and private clients at a fee. All you should do is give us access to where the contaminated fuel is stored, it doesn't matter whether it is in a fixed storage tank, mobile storage tank or container since we can get to it and get rid of it safely and securely.

Contamination with Water and AdBlue

Fuel system mixed with water can make the engine of your car behave terribly. Symptoms stated above for an engine with the incorrect fuel can also be noticed if the fuel system has water in it. This includes low power, lots of smoke coming out of the exhaust, irregularities on how the vehicle runs and even failing to run at all. In cases of incorrect fuel, the fuel filter won't be affected. But with water contamination, it should be changed.

Yet another thing which can cause similar symptoms is putting AdBlue directly into the fuel tank. Utilizing AdBlue without any knowledge of how it should be refilled can make your car behave abnormally. Hence, it should only be utilized by somebody who is aware that it should be added to its own tank rather than being added directly to the fuel.

If you are faced with these two issues then you shouldn't feel worried because we can solve both of these issues using the same process we use in cases of wrong fuel contamination. So, if your issue is incorrect fuel, water contaminated fuel, damaged fuel filters or AdBlue into the incorrect tank, don’t worry, we can fix it for you thus allowing you to carry on with your journey.

You will be back on the road soon

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.
