On arrival of the mechanic at your location

Once the mechanic is with you and has access to your vehicle, his first work is to confirm whether the problem of your vehicle is due to incorrect fuel or not. If it is not, he won’t render any service linked to the wrong fuel in the vehicle, and in that case, you won’t be charged the quoted fee but an updated amount.

If the technician learns that it is truly the case of wrong fuel then he will start fixing it right away as he already has the fresh fuel and the required equipment to fix the problem. He will remove the mixed fuel, flush fuel system thoroughly and then fill it with the fresh fuel priced at the same rate as at the petrol station. We also accept all major debit and credit cards as we know your situation and hence there is no need to be scared if you are out of cash.

Other Services

You should also know that other than dealing with your vehicle with wrong fuel, we provide other services linked to fuel. For instance, we do help our customers get rid of contaminated fuel. This is because your average mechanic is not authorized to do it nowadays because it can easily damage the environment and even contaminate the local water supply. Not only we are certified by the Environment Agency, we also have the right devices for discarding contaminated fuel.

This is a unique service that we provide to commercial and private clients. 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 get rid of the contaminated liquids, and dump them safely to the relevant regulations.

Contamination with AdBlue or Water

Putting the wrong fuel in your vehicle isn’t the only reason for engine problems. Fuel contaminated with water will also cause similar symptoms of lack of power, irregular running, a lot of smoke and stalling. Besides, it can make the fuel filters unusable and require replacement.

AdBlue if added incorrectly it can also show the same symptoms in your car. This additive which is used to purify the emissions of your engine should only be added through its own separate tank and automatic dosing system inbuilt into the car rather than directly into a fuel tank of a diesel engine. If added manually, this should be carried out by somebody who knows the proper place to put it.

But don’t worry as regardless of whether it is an issue of contaminated fuel due to water or AdBlue, we are still able to help you. Through 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 enable you to get back on the road. Fuel filters can be possibly broken by water contamination in your fuel. We can fix it for you.

Just wait for a moment and we will be there. But if a couple of minutes is still too long for you to wait, you may redirect your attention through browsing other services that we provide. For sure we'll reach you imminently. Once the technician has started his work, he'll simply need about 30 minutes to get the work done and get you back on the road.

Wrong fuel in a vehicle might also lead to additional problems which include flat batteries and air locks in the fuel system. Still, this should not worry you much because we can sort them out for you. You can still go back on the road.

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.
