On arrival of the technician at your car

The very first task that our mechanic will do once he arrives at your place is to verify if the problem you reported via our customer service is correct or not - misfuelling. If the finding is negative, no services will be done on fixing the suspected incorrect fuel in the car. You won't be charged for the quoted services, instead, a call out charge will be asked of you.

The above symptoms are usually an indication of incorrect fuel in a car and if we discover that yours is the same issue, we will fix it right away since our technicians carry the necessary tools and fresh fuel with them. You should hire us because of these three reasons. The first reason is that we've got the skills to empty out the incorrect fuel and replace it with the right fuel. Another reason is our prices for the fuel replacement is the same as the present price in your nearby gas station. The last reason is the means of payment. We accept other kinds of payment like credit or debit cards if in case you don't have cash with you.

Contamination with AdBlue or Water

If your fuel system has water in it, irregularities of behavior will start to be shown by your engine. It will make it display the same signs as the wrong fuel in the car, such as low power, irregular running, production of excess smoke and even stalling. This case of water contamination can extend its damage to the fuel filters.

Putting AdBlue in the fuel tank can also make your car to show similar signs. AdBlue is a cleaner that helps the engine of your car to be more eco-friendly. Nevertheless, if this is added directly to your fuel tank, it will most likely to cause more trouble than good. That's the reason why it should have a separate tank and the dosing should be automated. If this is added into the fuel tank by someone who knows nothing of AdBlue, the outcome would be not good for the engine.

But don’t worry as regardless of whether it is a matter of contaminated fuel due to water or AdBlue, we are still in a position to help you. By applying the same procedure of draining and flushing the fuel system as used in solving the problem of wrong fuel in the car, we can let you get back on the road. Aside from that, if the damage has extended to your fuel filters, we can change them out on the spot. You don't have to call for another company to do that.

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.

A woman driving nearby contacted us as soon as she managed to get her misfueled car to work. She had filled petrol in her diesel Tonbridge and, like countless before her, thought that she could simply fill her car with diesel and it'd be no problem. The vehicle was coughing and then it died when she reached the the front of her office. We quickly started on the fuel drain after she called and got it resolved inside one hour while she was at the office. She came outside later on and thanked us stating, "I'm extremely happy you sorted my car."
