Upon arrival

First thing our technician will do once he arrives at your vehicle is to check your car so as to verify if indeed it is the issue of wrong fuel, and if they find out that it is not, he will only ask you for an updated amount of the quoted price.

There are three primary reasons why you should go for us. Our mobile mechanics are equipped with the best skills and equipment in draining out the incorrect fuel and replacing it with fresh fuel.

Other Services

Other than wrong fuel in a vehicle, we also offer other services related to it. You should also be familiar with them. To name one is getting rid of the contaminated fuel the proper and lawful way. Getting rid of this contaminated fuel is not allowed to anyone unless you are accredited to do so. If these fuels are thrown just anywhere, they could damage the environment and possibly contaminate the local water supply. Our certification from the Environment Agency makes us capable of discarding contaminated fuels the right way and legally.

Dumping contaminated fuel is a separate service we offer to our clients, either commercial or private companies. If you are a client looking for this service, all you have to do is give us access to the fixed, mobile storage tank, or other container where it is kept, and be assured that we will empty them out and then get rid of the contaminated fuel in accordance with the security regulations in place.

Contamination with AdBlue or Water

You should also take note of the fact that wrong fuel is not the only problem which makes the engine run in an abnormal way, but sometimes the presence of water in the fuel can also make your car produce a lot of smoke, stop, lack power, or run irregularly. But unlike wrong fuel, water can cause extra damage, such as permanent damage to the fuel filters.

The mistake of putting AdBlue into the fuel (AdBlue: a solution utilized to boost the cleanliness of engine exhausts) can also cause the above signs. AdBlue contamination can also take place if it is used by somebody who has no know-how on how or where it should be added. Hence, it should only be utilized by someone who is aware that it should be added to its own tank instead of being added directly to the fuel.

If you are faced with either of these two issues then you shouldn't feel worried because we can solve both of these issues utilizing the same procedure we use in cases of wrong fuel contamination. We are always there to fix your car and get you back on the road no matter if it is an issue of the incorrect fuel, fuel contaminated with water, or even AdBlue contamination.

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.
