Wrong Fuel in Car Aldington Frith - Petrol in Diesel Car Aldington Frith

It was around eight pm on a Wednesday and though we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Mark and me were seated there commenting on the weekend's sports, waiting around for the seventh call of the day to come in. Eventually we received a call from a woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Shell petrol station and filled petrol in her diesel Aldington Frith rental car by mistake. She was very agitated apparently, stating "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I completely forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to fret, plus that things like this regrettably happen. She was able to move the car into a secure area and, because it was only a short distance from our van, we were able to get to the lady fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained and she could go home to the hotel she was lodging in. Although we got fairly wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home calm and less concerned. Yet another job well done in my books!

On getting to your vehicle

Once our mobile technician arrives, he will assess the situation before taking any action. And if he finds out that it is not the problem of incorrect fuel in the vehicle, he won’t drain it unnecessarily, and you will just be charged an updated amount which is not equal to the cost of incorrect fuel in a car.

The above signs are usually an indication of wrong fuel in a vehicle and if we discover that yours is the same issue, we will fix it quickly since our mechanics bring the required equipment and fresh fuel with them. These three reasons should persuade you why we should serve you. Our mobile mechanics are equipped with the best skills and equipment in draining out the wrong fuel and changing it with fresh fuel. Another reason is that we ask for the similar price for fresh fuel as that priced in a petrol station. And the third reason is that we take all types of payment, hence if you don’t have ample cash with you, we will take payments through any major credit or debit card.

Other Services

Other than incorrect fuel in a vehicle, we also deliver other services associated with it. You should also know about them. To name one is disposing of the contaminated fuel the right and lawful way. This is because your average mechanic is not allowed to do it nowadays because it can quickly degrade the environment and even pollute the local water supply. Our accreditation from the Environment Agency makes us capable of discarding contaminated fuels the proper way and legally.

Dumping the contaminated fuel is also a service of its own which we provide to private and commercial customers. If you are a client looking for this service, all you should do is give us access to the fixed, mobile storage tank, or any other container where it is stored, and be assured that we will empty them out and then get rid of the contaminated fuel in accordance with the safety regulations in place.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

Contamination of fuel by water is another problem which can make your vehicle function badly. It will make it display the same symptoms as the wrong fuel in the car, such as low power, irregular running, production of excess smoke and even stalling. But unlike wrong fuel, it can make your fuel filters require replacement.

The mistake of putting AdBlue into the fuel (AdBlue: a solution used to boost the cleanliness of engine exhausts) can also cause the above symptoms. AdBlue contamination can also take place if it is used by somebody who has no knowledge on how or where it should be added. Therefore, 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.

In these situations, we can give the services of draining the fuel, flushing the engine and refilling with clean fuel, like in the case of filling your tank with the incorrect fuel. So, no matter what the cause we can get you on your way. We can also replace those fuel filters compromised by water.

Just wait for a moment and we'll be there. But if a couple of minutes is still too long for you to wait, you may redirect your attention through searching other services that we deliver. For sure we'll arrive imminently. Then, provide our technician around 30 minutes to work on your engine problem. You will be back on the road soon.

Often wrong fuel in the car can also result in many more problems, like the presence of air in the fuel system or a flat battery. But our professionals have all the skills and equipment to put it all right and get you back on the road.

Thanks for getting in touch with us. By doing so, we were hopefully able to handle your issue of wrong fuel and enabled you to get back on the road with all the stress gone.
