When we get to your location

The very first thing that our mobile technician will do when he reaches you is to check your car with the aim of verifying if it is actually the issue of wrong fuel. If the finding is negative, no services will be carried out on fixing the suspected wrong fuel in the car. You won't have to pay for the quoted services, instead, a call out charge will be asked of you.

Assuming it is the wrong fuel in your car 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 replenish it with good 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 present pump price. We are quite considerate when it’s time to make the payment, we understand this is an emergency situation for you so we don't insist on cash but allow all the major debit and credit cards.

Other Services

Are you aware that we also provide other services?

You should also note that we dispose of contaminated fuel on behalf of our customers. The contaminated fuel should not be disposed of by anyone unqualified, but by a professional in this industry because fuel disposal incorrectly done can pollute the water supply and damage the surroundings. You should allow us to do it for you since we are not only authorized by the Environment Agency but also capable of doing it in the proper way, both legally and safely.

Getting rid of contaminated fuel is another separate service that we give to commercial and private clients at a fee. If we are given access to the mobile storage tank, fixed storage tank or containers at the given locations, we can easily get rid of the contaminated fuels safely.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

Contamination of fuel by water is another problem which can make your car function badly. It will make it show similar signs as the wrong fuel in a car, such as low power, irregular running, production of too much smoke and even stalling. But unlike wrong fuel, it can make your fuel filters require replacement.

One more thing which can cause same symptoms is putting AdBlue directly into the fuel tank. Utilizing AdBlue without any knowledge of how it should be refilled can make your car behave abnormally. 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.

But don’t worry as regardless of whether it is a problem of contaminated fuel due to water or AdBlue, we are still able to help you. We can get you back to your journey after we carry out the same procedure as fixing an engine with wrong fuel. Works include draining and flushing, then, replacing with fresh fuel. Fuel filters can be possibly broken by water contamination in your fuel. We can fix it for you.

You will soon get back on the road

Don’t be worried about waiting for long considering that our mobile mechanic will reach you as quickly as possible whilst you go through our services and information, and he should be with you not long from now. For most situations, our standard time for getting our customers sorted and back on the road is just 30 minutes.

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

Thus, if you had started feeling stressed due to the issue of wrong fuel, at least you are now relieved and able to proceed with your journey as if nothing had happened.

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.
