Signs of vehicle irregularities mentioned above are an indication that your car has been pumped with incorrect fuel. Since we carry the needed tools and fresh fuel, we can fix that issue immediately wherever you are. There are three major reasons why you should select us. Our mobile technicians are equipped with the best skills and equipment in draining out the wrong fuel and changing it with fresh fuel. Another reason is our prices for the fuel replacement is the same as the current price in your nearby petrol station. The last reason is the method of payment. We take other forms of payment like credit or debit cards if in case you don't have cash with you.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

Putting the incorrect fuel in your car isn’t the only reason for engine problems. Such symptoms as lack of power, irregular running, excessive smoke, and engine stalling may also be due to fuel that is contaminated with water. Water is also likely to cause permanent damage to fuel filters.

A diesel-powered car may also exhibit such signs when someone puts AdBlue directly into the vehicle’s fuel tank. This can be done so through adding it to its own separate tank and dosing system which is inbuilt into the vehicle.

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. As we deal with your fuel problem, we can also replace water damaged fuel filters.

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 and 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.
