If you have any pets in your vehicle, they are best left there for their own security and for the safety of other road users.

The timing of your call won’t matter since we are accessible at any time of the day and night.

On arrival of the technician at your car
Once the mechanic is at your location and has access to your car, his first job is to confirm whether the problem of your vehicle is due to wrong fuel or not. If the finding is negative, no services will be carried out on fixing the suspected incorrect fuel in the car. You won't have to pay for the quoted services, rather, a call out charge will be asked of you.
Assuming it is the wrong fuel in your vehicle as usually is the case, our mechanics have all the equipment on board and know-how to empty your vehicle's fuel system, flush it out and refill it with nice clean fuel of the correct type. You should not worry that we over-charge you for the fresh fuel; our cost is exactly like the current pump price. We are quite considerate when it’s time for you to make the payment, we know this is an urgent situation for you so we do not insist on cash but accept all the major debit and credit cards.
AdBlue and Water Contamination
You should know that incorrect fuel is not the only problem which can make your engine run abnormally. The existence of water in fuel is another issue which can make your vehicle produce a lot of smoke, run irregularly, stop or show signs of no power. But unlike wrong fuel, water can cause extra damage, such as permanent damage to the fuel filters.
You can also notice similar 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 directly to your fuel tank, it will most likely to cause more trouble than good. That's precisely why it should have a separate tank and the dosing should be automated. If added manually, this should be done by somebody 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, no matter 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 in Car South Green - Petrol in Diesel Car South Green
It was before five pm on a Tuesday and although we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were seated there commenting on the recent footy, ready for the seventh fuel drain of the day to arrive. Before long we got a phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco filling garage and put the wrong fuel in her diesel South Green lease car. She was quite agitated it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol car I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to fret, and that such things regrettably often happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a secure area and, seeing that it was just a few miles from where we were, we could get to the lady quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got very drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive away contented and not so stressed. Yet another misfuel correction well done in my books!
