On getting to your location

The first thing the mobile technician will do when he gets to you is to verify the problem. And if he finds out that it is not the issue of incorrect fuel in the car, he won’t drain it unnecessarily, and you will just be charged an updated amount which is not equal to the cost of wrong fuel in a car.

The above symptoms are usually an indication of incorrect fuel in a car and if we find out that yours is the same issue, we will fix it straight away since our technicians bring the essential tools and fresh fuel with them. These three reasons should persuade you why we should serve you. Our mobile technicians are equipped with the best skills and equipment in draining out the wrong fuel and changing it with fresh fuel. One other reason is our prices for the fuel replacement is the same as the present price in your nearby petrol station. The last reason is the method of payment. We accept other kinds of payment like debit or credit cards if in case you don't have cash with you.

Contamination with Water and AdBlue

Fuel system mixed with water can make the engine of your vehicle behave badly. It will make it show the same symptoms as the wrong fuel in the car, such as low power, irregular running, production of excess smoke and even stalling. In cases of wrong fuel, the fuel filter won't be affected. But with water contamination, it should be changed.

The same set of signs may also be due to somebody trying to put AdBlue directly into the fuel tank of a diesel engine. It should be added to the vehicle through the dosing system of a separate built-in tank.

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. As we deal with your fuel issue, we can also replace water damaged fuel filters.

Other Services

Other than incorrect fuel in a vehicle, we also provide other services related to it. You should also be aware of them. To name one is disposing of the contaminated fuel the right and lawful way. This is because your average mechanic is not authorized to do it these days because it can quickly damage the environment and even pollute the local water supply. Not only we are accredited by the Environment Agency, we also have the correct devices for getting rid of contaminated fuel.

We give this as a service in itself to both commercial and private customers. All you should do is give us access, and it won’t matter if it is in a fixed storage tank, mobile storage tank or other container, we will drain it. We can then take away the contaminated liquids, and dump them safely to the relevant regulations.

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.
