And if he finds out that it is not the issue of wrong fuel in the vehicle, he won’t drain it unnecessarily, and you will only be charged an updated amount which is not equal to the cost of wrong fuel in a car.

Besides, we won’t charge you more on the price of fresh fuel since we charge a similar price as any gasoline station. And when it is time to pay, we can take all major credit and debit cards, as we understand you may not bring enough cash and have probably stopped a long way from the nearest cash machine.

Contamination with Water and AdBlue

There are other factors that cause engine problems apart from filling your vehicle with the wrong fuel. Fuel contaminated with water will also cause very similar signs of lack of power, irregular running, excessive smoke and stalling.

We can get you back to your journey after we do the same procedure as fixing an engine with wrong fuel. Works include draining and flushing, then, priming with fresh fuel.
