This was exactly what is called an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was around dawn and noone was about. It had become quite quiet so far, and Ryan and I were sitting browsing a few old papers. It was an unusual calm time. Actually it was so relaxing that when the phone rang it made me start! The person stated: "I have only just finished my evening shift and stupidly filled petrol in my Fosten Green in error". We asked him to tell us where exactly the vehicle was and we left, getting to him 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the engine.

Once we reach your site

Upon arrival, our competent technician will first check your vehicle to make sure that it is the issue of incorrect fuel in the car. And if it is not, he won't drain it but will only ask you for a minimal amount.

The above signs are usually an indication of incorrect fuel in a car and if we figure out that yours is the same problem, we will fix it straight away since our technicians carry the essential tools and fresh fuel with them. There are three major reasons why you should go for us. Our mobile technicians are equipped with the best skills and tools in draining out the wrong fuel and replacing 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 sufficient cash with you, we will allow payments through any major credit or debit card.

Other Services

Are you aware?

You might also wish to know if we offer other services besides dealing with the problem of wrong fuel.

Once our mobile mechanic has emptied out the wrong fuel, they have a full tank of contaminated fuel which must be disposed of. Nowadays, there is a serious problem that such fuel could significantly harm the environment or even contaminate the water supply so you are not allowed to casually dump it anywhere. But we can handle it for you since we have the right equipment, and we are authorized by the Environment Agency to do so.

It is also a service that we deliver separately to commercial and private clients at a fee. We can drain fixed or mobile tanks as well as a wide variety of other containers, as long as we can get to them. We can then get rid of the contaminated liquids, and dispose of them securely to the relevant regulations.

AdBlue and Water Contamination

You should know that wrong fuel is not the only issue which can make your engine run abnormally. The presence of water in fuel is another issue which can make your car produce a lot of smoke, run irregularly, stop or show signs of no power. But unlike wrong fuel, water can cause more damage, such as irreparable damage to the fuel filters.

The mistake of putting AdBlue into the fuel (AdBlue: a solution used to enhance the cleanliness of engine exhausts) can also cause the above signs. AdBlue contamination can also occur if it is used by someone who has no know-how on how or where it should be added. For correct operation of it, AdBlue should only be added through its own separate tank and dosing system rather than added to the fuel tank.

We extend our service to you whatever it maybe: whether it's an AdBlue problem or fuel contaminated with water. By using the same process of draining and flushing the fuel system as used in solving the issue of wrong fuel in the car, we can let you get back on the road. Additionally, we can help you replace the fuel filters damaged by water contamination so you don’t need to worry about them.

You will soon get back on the road

Don’t worry 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. We usually take about thirty minutes to solve the issue and enable our clients to hit the road again.

Our highly trained technicians also have the tools and know-how to help you fix other issues resulting from incorrect fuel, which include: flat battery and air locks in the fuel system, so you won’t be stuck on the road because of them.

So, today has been a bit of a headache, but hopefully, we have minimized the pain and stress, and got you back on the way immediately.

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 anywhere in Kent to 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.
